I am a Systems Analyst in the Life Insurance industry, specializing in the mainframe-based platform of CyberLife (with primary focus on Policy Administration). I am currently employed with Sammons Financial Group in Sioux Falls, South Dakota administering policies for primarily Midland National Life Insurance and North American since 2012. CyberLife is administered by most of the top-25 Life Insurance companies across the nation, and a few around the globe. My initial CyberLife experience comes from a nearly 12-year work history with CSC in the Denver area (click here to view my resume), 18 months of contract work at Jackson National, and now at Sammons Financial Group. Additionally, I have experience in Life/70, LifeComm and Vantage One. My primary experience is within COBOL with both DB2/SQL and CICS. Additionally, I am experienced in xPression Design, Edify Automation and HTML front-ends. I also have experience with web design and e-commerce using Perl and Javascript for a previously owned home-based business where I developed our website in-house, heavily modifying a small shopping-cart program for credit card processing, store-front, keyword search engine optimization and back-office order handling.

Falls Park, Sioux Falls, South Dakota

I remain a Colorado Avalanche hockey fan, but don't follow as closely after our relocation to South Dakota. I'm also a science-fiction fan and greatly enjoy nearly all categories of movies. I do enjoy reading, although it usually involves non-fiction Biblical topics & discussions. Otherwise, I do enjoy reading books by the likes of Michael Crichton, Tom Clancy and John Grisham.

My wife, Reagan, and I were married in 2004 and she has been the largest blessing in my life. She has worked in accounting and is proud to be a Colorado native. I, having been raised in Albuquerque, New Mexico (and just outside in the small mountain town of Edgewood), had a strong desire to live in Colorado where I would eventually attend college (at Colorado Mesa University). I am happy to have had the opportunity to wind up living in Denver (and meet my wife) for nearly 15 years. After a short stint back in New Mexico and in Michigan, my wife and I have now adjusted to life in the small ("big") city of Sioux Falls, South Dakota. Although we really miss Colorado and our friends there, we know our path has been led here to South Dakota and we are thankful for the blessings of a good job and a fantastic church family.
