I have been attending UGA for around 10 years and have been in the hospital nearly every year since I was 16. I'm a software engineer and expert Java developer (wi-fi, RDS), but have also worked as a consultant and project manager. UGA is one of my favorite places to go because it's completely beautiful, nice people, great food.
