About Pruetts.com
There isn’t a whole lot of content here yet, but you’ve stumbled onto the home page of the Pruett family. Jeff and Kristen Pruett are featured most prominently, but as more Pruetts get on-line, we’ll give them a fair representation, too.

Personal
Kristen and I met during our freshman year at Righetti High School. We began dating in the fall of our Junior year, and married after we had completed Associate’s degrees at our local city college. After some adventures in Redondo Beach and Santa Barbara, Kristen and I are now living in Santa Maria, California.

Education
Kristen graduated from Cerritos College with an Associate’s degree and her license to practice Dental Hygiene. She has been employed as a Dental Hygienist since the fall of 2000.

I graduated from the University of California, Santa Barbara with a Bachelor’s and Master’s degree in Computer Science in June of 2004.

Employment Status
I currently work as a Software Engineer for Lockheed Martin in the Santa Maria office, and I am enjoying my work more and more each day. I’ve already had tremendous opportunities to stretch my technical skills and grow as a leader on my team. Before I joined Lockheed Martin, I launched out on an entrepreneurial exploit rather than traveling the traditional employment route for college grads. Predator Systems is still going strong without me, bringing revolutionary technology to the pest inspection industry.

Prior to my four years at UCSB, I worked for 3DStockCharts.com, an internet start-up company. I’ve also worked for Critical Path, an enterprise level e-mail messaging solution provider, and Trident Data Systems, now owned by Veridian.
