I last attended in 2000 and it will take me a while to edit my information.

About 5 years ago I left Bell Laboratories and hoped to go into consulting. My first attempt at this resulted in a permanent job at a small family-like company not far from home. This had some ups and downs and by early this year a felt that the situation could not last much longer. Today I signed a offer letter from a company provides consulting services for the wireless industry. I expect and hope that this will be the job that I have been looking for for a long time.

I am look forward to AYE to renew old friendships and be reminded of the things that got me to this point.

Phil, I'm thrilled for you, both that you'll be at AYE again, and that you have found this new job. -- JohannaRothman 2006.07.22

Phil, this is really exciting. I'll be interested to hear about the new job--by November you should have some tales to tell--and about how AYE has changed since our first year, way back in 2000. For those of us who have been in AYE every year, we've probably not noticed the changes, they way you don't notice your kids growing up every day, but you do notice your grandchildren growing up when you see them twice a year. - JerryWeinberg 2006.-07.23
