I graduated from Kettering University (back when it was called GMI Engineering and Management Institute) and Arizona State University. However, I also have some credits from Stanford, Carnegie Mellon, Purdue and UCSD. Most of my interests are related to software engineering for phones, tablets, cars and computers in general. I'm also quite interested in video compression and automotive engineering. Currently, I work for Amazon AWS but I also spent time at Qualcomm, General Motors, Hughes Electronics, Xperi DTS and DivX.
You can find me on Twitter, LinkedIn and Quora.
William Frantz Elementary School
Coincidentally, there is an elementary school named William Frantz Elementary School at 3811 North Galvez Street, New Orleans, LA 70117. The school is famous for three reasons.
- First, it was mentioned in the Warren Commission Report as the school attended by Lee Harvey Oswald.
- Decades later, 6 year old Ruby Bridges also attended William Frantz Elementary marking the end of racial segregation on November 14, 1960.
- Lastly, the school is also famous for yielding Pulitzer Prize winning author, Robert Coles who also attended William Frantz in 1960.
Sadly, the school was heavily damaged during hurricane Katrina on August 29, 2005 and has never re-opened. The building is now occupied by Akili Academy, a charter school.
