ACE Programmer Dedicates Right Arm to AMX


ACE programmer Caracé Ramos with CCS Presentation Systems of Scottsdale, Arizona takes serious pride in his work. He's dedicated his right arm to AMX and he wants everyone to know about it.

Caracé explains, "I have AMX on EVERYTHING I touch. My laptop has an AMX sticker and so do my toolbox and laptop bag. My license plate says "AMX ACE" and now AMX is permanently on my arm." He's not kidding. This AMXer went all the way by getting a permanent ACE Certified Expert tattoo on his right arm.

Caracé shares what got him so excited about AMX and ACE, "Six years ago I saw this guy doing some programming on a system and I said to myself, 'That's what I want to do; I want to get to the highest level possible and obtain all the certifications they have.' Four years later I got my ACE Expert certification and I accomplished just that."

But he's not stopping there. He continues, "Since then, my goal is to be the best there is in AMX programming. I've got a long way to go but every day I try to learn something new and little by little I'll get there. I want someone in, say Spain (or wherever) to somehow mention my name when a conversation about AMX comes up."
