“Leiming
has tackled challenges in all aspects of the software and storage
industry. He has been involved in manipulating bits and bytes of
the SCSI protocol, writing cross-platform, multithreaded client/server
applications, designing and developing SQL databases and Web interfaces,
and writing simulation programs for tape backup systems. I’m confident
that no matter what challenges arise, Leiming has the educational
background and personal ingenuity necessary to succeed. We’d certainly
like to have more employees of Leiming’s caliber join our team.”
