I started working for the University of Washington in 1991 as a Fiscal Technician: Reviewing, analyzing assigned departmental budget activity report (BAR) for the Facility Management Office (FMO) projects. Thereafter, I moved to Portland Oregon State and was gainfully employed by US Bank in their then Co-operate office at the CSR department. In 1998 the Bank merged with the First Bank of Minnesota and their headquarters was moved to Minnesota Minneapolis. I moved back to Seattle in the same year and was working on temp positions with the UW and also in construction. By the end of 1999 to mid 2002 I worked for VoiceStream as a Revenue Accountant.
