What's your Field of expertise?

Due to education, I'm pretty good at Canadian Law and Cell Biology. Worked my way through college with finance analysis, though.
 
I've been formally trained in:

Film Theory and History
Film Production (the actual nuts and bolts of getting them made and raising finance for them)
Scriptwriting (for radio, film and TV)
Semiotics & Semantics (esp. in advertising and news contexts)
Media Analysis of various sorts too numereous to mention
Contemporary Fine Arts Theory and Practice
Art History (esp. 20th century and late 19th)
Still Photography, theory and history more than practice
English Literature and realms of Philosophy by default from the above
I'm also about to undergo a Masters in my new profession having chalked up the necessary years now.

Hmm. I am a Professional Computer Geek, with training (and 25 yrs experience) as a Programmer/Analyst, currently working as a Software Configuration Manager, and as a part-time Tester. For most of the last 22 years I have worked on specialized software for HQSAC/US Strategic Command, perhaps giving me some different insights into some of the plans and policies that affect our international relationships.

I have also spent time helping maintain nuclear weapons. I have a Bachelors Degree in Biology and Chemistry. I have studied a lot of history.

I also have a lot of arcane knowledge and trivia that stands me in good stead in most any situation. ;)
 
European History
The Second World War
PC Gaming
Traditional Art or Creative stuff

I've been partially trained in

English and English Literature
Philosophy
Film Studies

I try to learn a bit about everything though, so at the very least I can maintain an 'interested pose,' or at most active discussion in all topics :)
 
I seem to excel at unpairing my socks when doing the laundry, thereby having one of them vanish, but never the other :confused:

Besides I have a small degree in economics (Licence in France, I don't bother too much what it is in other countries, well it's at arount 21 year old).
Hobby : Music, several instruments (sax, guitare, piano, drums etc...), Astronomy. And yeah : cooking ;).
