Seasons Change…Ten at a Time
This Memorial Day weekend has been hot. It’s been in the 90s here in Iowa City. It’s a special Memorial Day weekend in my heart though because it marks ten years that I’ve been here. I moved to Iowa City on Memorial Day weekend of 1996. Somehow I ended up staying here ten years. Hard to imagine.
At this ten year mark though, I am also at an inflection point. I will be signing the papers this week to put my house on the market, and I will be leaving Iowa. I will certainly miss it, but I realize it is time for me to move on to bigger and better things. I don’t have any concerns about my place selling. It is only 4.5 years old, and I have been the only owner.
That said, I’m on the job market and looking in the Madison or Milwaukee area for IT work. I’m of course very adept at the web design and development side of things, but I also have a master’s degree in journalism so I can write and express ideas clearly. Here’s a PDF of my resume [removed].
I will miss my many friends in the area of course, and I wish everyone well. If you know of any positions in the Madison / Milwaukee area or know someone who does, drop me a line. Onward!

Personally, I wouldn't consider Madison (my home) to be better (perhaps bigger) than anything in Iowa. Beware the judgemental hippies and liberal hypocrisy. (This, spoken from a self-proclaimed liberal).
Though large, Madison is a college town. Make of that, what you will.
Madison is a fine town. I lived there a few years, and it has always had a special place in my heart. I've tended to describe Iowa City to people as "Madison without the politics," and for most people that is enough for them to get a sense of this place.
