[edit] About Me
I currently work at the Baylor Health Care System in Dallas, TX as a SAS programmer.
Previously, I was an Injury Epidemiologist at the California Department of Public Health - Epidemiology and Prevention for Injury Control (EPIC) Branch. As part of my duties I worked on the SAS/IntrNet based EPICenter Injury Data website.
I'm a Certified SAS9 Programmer and have been using SAS since around 1995 (V6). I did use a SAS app in 1989, but didn't know what the heck it was and I used JMP on the mac in the early 1990's at NASA Ames Research Center.
Outside of work I might be found watching hockey (Go Avalanche!), road or mountain biking in the Dallas area, contemplating riding my bike to work, or skiing/snowboarding (obviously NOT in the Dallas area).
