My Work

When someone asks me who I work for or what I do I give my official answer, a Communications Analyst for the County of Riverside. What does that mean, well really for me that means that I design, build, support and troubleshoot data networks for the County of Riverside. Right now though I am very fortunate to be the only data network engineer on the County's new radio system project being built for our public safety departments. The radio system will support not just voice but data connectivity for mobile users such as Fire personnel or Sheriff deputies while in the course of their duties. So why am I really fortunate? Well because I get to travel to places that a lot of people never see. I get to go to hill and mountain tops where current and future radio sites will be built. In some cases I even get to do some off-roading in our Jeeps to get to those places and when I get their I get to enjoy the view and take photographs. This photograph was taken at Red Mountain, where I spent the best part of Thursday getting sun burnt, after we escorted our contractors to the radio site. Red Mtn. overlooks the south east of Hemet and the North East of Temecula and Murrieta. It takes almost 2 hours to get there on some pretty rough roads but, when you do the views are amazing. On Monday I'll post a photograph of the strange building up at Red Mtn. and tell you why it's there.
