Thus the reason we pushed, "slightly", for him to enter pre med. If we only knew his true obsesion was in computers, we would have put one in his crib! We are very proud of Dan and his family and the success he has found. We know he will continue to succeed in all he does. Love You Son!

Yeah, I'm the one with the transformer shirt. The picture really is typical of our relationship and up bringing. Our parents spent all their money on Danny. Matt was given a slinky as a charity present. Where I was left with nothing. All I could do was look at my brothers' gifts with envy. I knew from that day that I would have to overcome adversity by working for everything that I have. And that, my friends, is why Danny only have a BS, where I have a Masters Degree. ;) Love you brother! This is Dan’s youngest brother, Phillip. Yeah, I’m the one with the transformer shirt.

I always thought of CS stuff as "for fun" stuff. I didn't really think about it as a career option, and I was a bit scared of the Math. However I finally learned that the Math I was scared of is only really used in Graphics and a few other diciplines. I do wish I could travel back and talk to "young Dan". I could teach him alot.
