[edit] Curriculum Vitae
My name is Sam Frabotta. I was born in Nürnberg, Germany in 1958. As an Army brat, I was moved around a bit until our family settled in Pennsylvania in 1968.
After high school, I spent 4 years in the US Navy and served aboard the Destroyer, USS Mullinnix (DD-944) as a Bosn's Mate. While serving aboard the USS Mullinnix, I got to see a larger part of the world than I would otherwise have been able to. Places that the ship made port in and that I was able to explore include Bahrain, Bermuda, Djibouti, Egypt, England, France, Holland, Italy, Jamaica, Iran, Mauritius, Pakistan, La Réunion, Scotland, Seychelles, Spain, St. Croix, St. Thomas, and Sudan.
Following the Navy, I attended college for a while before starting a career as a developer of business related micro-computer software in 1981. As a software developer, I have worked in various fields including Manufacturing, Medical, Financial, and most recently in School Security.
I am the father of five children, two of whom were adopted.
I speak English fluently, German moderately, and have been learning Indonesian.
[edit] Interests
I enjoy reading, video gaming (XBOX 360, PC), and spending time with my family and friends. All things scientific are of interest to me.
My favorite Web Sites are: Wikipedia and Project Gutenberg.
