I am Long Moua, I originally came from Laos in 1976 after the communist Phatet Lao took over Laos in 1975.
I was a refugee to Thailand from June 1975 to October 1976. I came to the United States in late October 1976 and live in Colorado since.
I attended Fairview High School in Boulder, Colorado from 1977-1979. I graduated from Fairview High School in June 1979. September 1979-June 1980 I took a year of vocational school at Boulder Vo-Tech in Electronic. From 1980-1982 I went to Front Range Community College and graduated with an Associate of Applied Science degree in Electronic Technology. After I graduated, I was working for MiniScribe Corporation as an Electronic Technician working on disk drives. I worked at MiniScribe for about one and a half years.
In January 1986 I got hired at the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) as an Electronic Service Technician in the High Performance Networking Group to work on the early network cabling, maintenance and repair computer terminals. Later worked as a Network Technician for the Network Engineering and Telecommunication Section(NETS) within the Computational Information and Systems Laboratory (CISL) at the National Center for Atmospheric Research until today. I am responsible for copper and fiber cables fabrication, network installation, network port activation, de-activation, test and troubleshoot network ports through out UCAR and NCAR Campuses. I also work on the NETS cabling inventory of cables and purchase order.
While I am working at the National Center for Atmospheric Research, in 1992-94 I attended night classes at Colorado Christian University and graduated with a Bachelor degree in Computer Information System Management in May 1994.
I married to my wife Ka in 1981 and we have five children, three sons and two daughters. Now they are all married and I have five grand sons and eight grand daughters.
We enjoy traveling to visit our children, grand children and we try to travel around the country as much as we can to do sight seeing and other countries to enjoy our lives.
Other interests are photography, trail hiking, walking, running and recreation. I also start enjoying to make movie and photo slideshow of my families and vacation places.
