February 1982

During a "period of separation" from AT&T Information Systems, I was a self-employed information systems consultant in Atlanta Georgia during 1981-1982. One of my clients was Theodore Barry & Associates, a management consultant firm based in Los Angeles. Consultants in the firm's Atlanta office contracted from me the development and implementation of a "Line Crew Management System". While under contract with this firm, consultants in the Atlanta office asked me be a member of their consulting team in Venezuela. This was a short-term assignment: three weeks duration. While in Venezuela, I evaluated several legacy information systems inherited by "Logovan S.A. Refinery" when Venezuela nationalized Exxon holdings.
