Hello all,
                                                                                           
 My name is Chris Sammons and I am an undergraduate student
studying computer science at the University of Tennessee.
I have an assignment for my Technical Writing class to interview
someone that is currently working in my field of intersest concerning
the importance of writing in their career. Since I wish to eventually become a
security consultant, I thought this would be the perfect place
to ask these questions. I would greatly appreciate anyone (whose
current career is similar to my aspirations) for anwswering these few
questions for me. Please email me directly instead of
the entire list <sammons () cs utk edu>. Thank you for your time.
