About Me

I am a [semi]retired US Army CWO now working in the IS/IT industry. I have always loved working in/around computers and related systems, so the change from my Army career (Helicopter aviation) to my new carer in IS/IT was a transition I not only looked forward to, but took extra zeal with.
Currently I am working full time for a Japanese manufacturing company in NC as a Network, Server,and VMWare Virtual Infrastructure Administrator and I love the job! New technology excites my drive to make it all work; I've had the opportunity for several classes and seminars on technology and this industry is really where I can provide the best benefit to my employer. Interested parties in my specific qualifications please look at my resume; I am interested in IS/IT project management as well, since I have exceptional time management skills and am comfortable working with 3rd party vendors.
