Tony was first inspired by the information industry in 1977 when, as a Jr. High School student, he took part in a program from the Minnesota Educational Computing Consortium, or MECC, a state-funded organization, that developed educational software for the classroom. One of the projects Tony was heavily involved in was the development of the popular educational computer game The Oregon Trail, developed on the Teletype platform, as PC’s did not exist in 1977!

After Graduating High School, Tony attended Miller Institute, now ITT, in the Phoenix Area to further his technical abilities. From the Miller Institute Tony received FCC certifications in Computer Electronics and Radio Communications, and later Cisco and Comptia Certifications in Networking and Server administration.

Tony has a love for anything technical, electronic or mechanical. It shows not only in his work but also his hobbies as an Amateur Radio Operator and avid Jeep Off road enthusiast. Tony also gives back to the community his experience and skill sets by playing host and administrator of public PC gaming servers and organizing environmental cleanup rallies for National Public Lands day, an event held every year and observed nationally by the U.S. Forestry Service and The Bureau of Land Management.
