I started off working on computers as a hobby at home and in college. All of my friends knew if they had a problem with their computer I was the one to go to. Around 2003 I started to work with home networks both setting them up and securing them from intrusion attempts.  In 2005 I started working at an IT help desk and I have been working in IT since.

For a number of years I worked in a small school system that varied between 2-4 schools.  After that I was working for a consulting firm.  During those times I was working on various sized networks ranging from small to medium size, single and multi-site.

More recently I have been working local government.  I have gone from Network Admin to Sr. Network Admin to Director of IT.  This has been a very interesting challenge that has allowed me to grow quite a bit in my professional career.
