Matt @ a winery, looking cool as hell

Chilling at a winery. One of my work resources in India said I look like a movie star in this pic, which I am well aware of.

My name is Matt Hugo.  I have lived most of my life in Belleville, IL (Here out referred to as Bellevegas).  I was born in Arizona on a snowy night in 1982.  Oldest of three boys.  Growing up with two brothers made for some fun times, you always have something to play with beat up on.

I graduated from UMSL with a B.S. in Management Information Systems in December of 2005 (with honors) after a rocky college career.  Had some motivation issues at the beginning of school.  I attended four school, University of Kansas (Go Jayhawks!), SIUE, Southwestern Illinois College (aka SWIC), and UMSL.  I actually only received credits from SWIC and UMSL.

My final semester at UMSL I landed a sweet co-op gig at bio-tech giant Monsanto on the Web Engineering and Support team.  After the co-op was over I was unable to get a job at Monsanto so I ended up working for Greenguard First Aid, Savvis, and then Network Solutions.  In November of 2007 I received a call from an old friend at Monsanto and he said a opened up and I should apply.  I did, was hired, and am now back doing web admin work there.  I support Weblogic, Tomcat, IIS, Apache, and anything else that could be considered part of web.
