Thank you very much for the reply and advice.

I actually did open a dialogue with a Microsoft recruiter - they want more than I have right now, but it's a possible direction, for sure.

Thank you especially for the profile advice - didn't realize my email didn't show, but I updated with a little more info.

On an unrelated note - notice you listed ww.com - I saw a reference on Reddit today: someone claimed to have seen a male in a bit less clothing than they desired. Nice coincidence to have you post here. :-)
