Hello. My name is Dominick Atanasio and I am a professor in the Mathematics and Computer Science Department. I started working full time in the computer industry in the mid-1990s as a consultant for a New Jersey consulting firm. While working there I earned my Microsoft Certified Systems Engineer certification for NTv4 and Windows 2000. In 2004 I was hired as the Director of IT for a publishing company. I worked there for 17 years until accepting my position at Mt. SAC as Professor of Computer Science. I earned my Associate degree in Computer Science at Los Angeles City College. I then transferred to Cal Poly Pomona where I earned Bachelor's degree, then Master's degree in Computer Science. The focus of my Master's work was Robotics. I had planned for years to transition to full-time teaching. I had experienced the satisfaction that comes from teaching as far back as my consulting job. In 2010 I purposed to make it my profession. I began teaching part-time at Cal Poly in 2016 as an adjunct professor. My personal interests are hiking/orienteering, reading, movies, and learning. In my past jobs I have not had much time for any of these except learning, however, these activities are my first choices when time allows.
I am so excited that you have decided to take Java Language and Object Oriented Programming or Data Structures and Algorithms ! Your success is important to me, so to help prepare you for the next part of your educational journey, I would like to share some information with you about my courses and classroom environments.
