EMPLOYMENT:
1997

VOLUNTEER EXPERIENCE:
In 1999, I volunteered 180 hours to design and build a Website for the Denton Family Resource Center in Denton, Texas.They used my design for nearly two years until another On-line volunteer became available. I learned how to use FrontPage and FTP doing this. I also learned a lot about volunteer boards and dealing with the process of building consensus to serve the organizational needs. Since August 2000, I have developed and maintained my wife s school class Web site at http://skcomeau.crosswinds.net, as Web master comeauzone. The site serves a self-contained special education class at Clear Creek Intermediate School in the Sanger Independent School District Region XI in Sanger, Texas. It is the first teacher web site hosted through the District. This experience has challenged me to learn to create an interoperable Web page accessible to all, and integrate technology standards to the special education students and teachers. I have also served as a PTA volunteer and had fun as a Cub-Scout dad.
Back to top of RESUME
NOTES:One special area that interests me involves adaptability and accessibility issues in Internet web site design and computer use. My wife is a Special Education Teacher serving a multi-level group of students.We run a web site she uses in her class. She has challenged me to make it accessible to all her students, some of whom cannot read, some cannot type. Adaptations make a world of difference in the experience of these children. I have learned that other groups can be served as well. I do not claim expertise in this area, but I have learned how important it is to enhance life and give hope. Many experiments were lost when our web site server lost our files due to the World Trade Center disaster; our work is being restored, (http://skcomeau.crosswinds.net) as time permits. I am especially interested in working with senior volunteer organizations and advocacy in the areas involving accessibility (in technology and in public policy areas) and sustainable community building. I have a personal need to go out and help organizations serve seniors in effective ways that include coalition building and prioritizing meaningful strategic goals. I am working on my application to the University of North Texas Department of Applied Gerontology graduate program leading to a Master of Science degree with a major in administration of aging organizations.
