  Austin, Texas, United States There is a 6 trillion dollar wealth gap between what baby boomers need to retire and what they have saved for retirement. This same group, homeowners aged 62 and above, have a combined home equity in excess of 11 trillion dollars, but no real way to treat that equity as liquidity.

This same group, homeowners aged 62 and above, have a combined home equity in excess of 11 trillion dollars, but no real way to treat that equity as liquidity. HECM's allow you to do just that, along with the bonuses of an OPTIONAL monthly principal and interest payment, a line of credit with an available balance that grows, and terms that allow you to stay in your home for the remainder of your life. What if you didn't have to make a principal and interest payment every month? How would that change your quality of life? If you are 62 or over, have at least 50% equity in your home, and intend to occupy your home for the long-term, a HECM can provide life-changing security to your cash flow, overall net worth, and your ability to weather changes in financial markets as you move through your golden years.

I joined Selectica pre-IPO as a Sales Engineer, marking a career transition point from software engineering to sales. As a Sales Engineer, I was responsible for all technical aspects of the sales process. Because we sold enterprise software and due to the sheer complexity of enterprise configuration applications, we sold exclusively to IT. It was my job to consult directly with the prospect in order to understand existing pricing and configuration systems, new requirements, technology architecture, and integration challenges. I then applied this knowledge to design a customized Selectica solution. I was the lead sales engineer on a $32,000,000 project we sold to IBM. The entire sales cycle was 24 months, and culimated in a month-long series of technical workshops and demonstrations with IBM senior management. In addition to spearheading this effort, I also presented the results of this validation to an audience of 50 IBM Senior VPs in a formal setting. These efforts led directly to technical closure for the entire project. After the IBM sale, I was promoted to a Global Account Manager. I managed the relationship and sold additional projects to a $14MM portfolio of Fortune 100 customers such as Dell, AT&T, and Cisco. After seeing success in a farming role, I took on a pure hunting role when I was promoted to Regional Sales Manager. As Regional Sales Manager, I led a team that focused on new customer acquisition from Fortune 1000 companies throughout the central US. Built a $6MM pipeline in order to achieve 120% of a $3MM new bookings quota. Show less

I was a programmer and architect for the Products Group, so I designed, developed, and maintained the IT systems used to properly configure, price, and develop the manufacturing Bill-of-Materials required to construct the systems. As Dell's server, storage, and networking solutions became more advanced, technical validation, pricing, and configuration of these sytems became extrememly complicated. Once Dell began offering rack-mounted, multi-base system solutions, configuration and pricing became almost unmanageable. I was selected to lead a team of five programmers that was dedicated to solving these complex configuration and pricing issues. I architected a system that utilized a third-party configuration engine to manage configuration rules and constraints. We integrated this engine into the sales application used by over 500 Technical Sales Representatives. Primary technologies used were Visual Basic, MSSQL Server, Microsoft Transaction Server, and MSMQ for integration with Dell's back-end mainframe systems. As the application matured, I was responsible for system maintenance and upgrades. As Dell's business model became more focused on driving business via e-commerce, we converted our application to run on the corporate intranet as well as Dell Premier Customer websites. We were able to implement drag-and-drop visual capability that enabled users to physically place systems in racks, as well as build cabling diagrams to ensure that all systems were properly connected. Because the application solved a very challenging techical problem and due to its ease of use, this application was a primary driver of Dell's early success in the Enterprise market. Due to the success of this application and my team, I was Banded a "1" (Top 10% of all employees company-wide) for two consecutive years. Show less

CAPS was a mutli-tiered client-server replacement for an existing, antiquated minframe ERP system. I was an analyst on the System Test team, and responsible for writing test scripts for Functional, Technical, and Performance test execution. After graduation from St. Edward's, I accepted a full-time position as an Analyst. My first task was three months of intensive training to learn how to design and develop multi-tiered client/server applications using client-server theory, C++, SQL, Oracle RDMS and relational data theory, as well as FOUNDATION (internal CASE tool). After training, I returned to the CAPS project as a software engineer and developed several modules of the CAPS application. I followed these modules from initial design through system testing. I realized that I enjoyed the performance testing and bug hunting/fixing aspects of system test, and spent the remainder of my Andersen career as a software testing engineer. In addition to my primary responsibilities, I also developed an automated system used to prioritize, track progress, and report the status of errors curretly in process. Show less
