Got a college degree in Electrotechnical engineering.

Ended up as software tester for car navigation systems (can't write a single line of code *g* )

Recently I have been appointed volunteer to lead the test projects at my company, and they're actually pretty pleased with me. In charge of 6 people, four of them older than me, two of them over 20 years older.

I'm 31, but still hang out with skaters and rock festival types in the 16 to 25 age bracket. They don't take me very seriously (justifiably ;-) ) but during weekdays I manage projects, people and budgets with my pierced eyebrow and U2 T-shirt. Life is weird.

I'm a Software Consultant/Graphic Artist (out of necessity since they fired the old one :)) for the US branch of a UK based HR recruitment, selection and assessment company.

I basically sit in a cube and build VB internet software for companies recruitment sites - we give tests and application blanks, etc. online, and occasionally do some graphics.

Mainly I screw off and read the HTC BB. :)

Quality Manager for an RV manufacturer. Also a member of the NFPA code committee on Recreational Vehicles. So I sit here and answer questions a lot, and walk the plant some, and tweak you guys some. Tough life really.
