My name is Paul and I'm a Computer Science and Mathematics double major, with a Spanish minor, at Ursinus College in Pennsylvania. I'm from South Jersey, and damn proud of it. I am currently the president of the Ursinus chapter of the ACM (Association for Computing Machinery, or computer club). I also am (although not really official) the Associate Systems Administrator for a little separate network the CS department has at Ursinus. It's basically just a subset of IP addresses that are external from the Ursinus network, but they are controlled by me. I have been setting up several servers on this network to be used for all kinds of purposes, including a webpage and forum for the ACM, student research, backups, and various other services. Besides configuring the machines, I've created security protocols and a backup system. I'm hoping to expand it all into something that can help all of the students and make the ACM a big part of Ursinus.
Additionally, in order to make a living, I work with many different things, but I have two main jobs right now. I am a consultant/system admin/database designer for a non-profit organization called Gateway Employment. I helped them upgrade the workstations and server in their office. I also set up their domain and am currently working on upgrading their MS Access database. My other current job is with Ivory Tower Group, doing work with PHP applications for their clients. I have also done a little system administration for them. On the side, I work at a couple different hotels as a front desk clerk and do whatever computery things are needed.
All in all, I work way too much, but it's giving me a lot of experience in the fields that I want to get into.
