In 1995, while in college, I began working part-time as a graphic designer at a small family-owned printing shop. After graduating, I moved to a larger company where I became specialized in working with Macintosh computers. During this time, I attended many Cisco network classes and acquired several certifications. I’ve spent the last decade working full-time as a Network Analyst while doing separate contract jobs after-hours. Because of this, I was able to gain valuable hands-on experience with nearly every type of equipment found in the industry.
