Mark Sargeant

I live in Seattle and am a programmer at Microsoft. I spent this past year (2010) fighting in Asghanistan to finish my comittment with the Marine Corps Reserve... I also fought in Iraq in 2007. I graduated from USC in May 2006 with a dual degree in Compuer Engineering and Computer Science, then graduated again in December 2006 with a Masters in Computer Engineering. Before getting sent to Afghanistan I was working on an MBA at UW's night program, but have since been admitted to USC and UCLA's MBA programs for people working full time and am trying to decide if I should start over in one of these programs. I've travelled all over the United States and the world. I spent a couple years of my childhood in Sicily, Itally, backpacked Europe in the summer of 2006, and have spent considerable time in Europe, the Middle East, and Central Asia courtesy of the Marine Corps. My lifetime aspirations are to keep learning, keep travelling, keep seeking success, and to always be happy.
