CAREER SUMMARY

Currently seeking all of my certifications. Achieving my CCNA R&S, CCNA Security, CCNA Voice, Network+ and Cisco Data Center Specialist. Presently working for Secure Mission Solutions as a Sr. Network Engineer, for SPAWAR. Worked 6 months on a Government contract as a Network Engineer at the National Archives in College Park, MD and 10 years working as a full-time employee in the Computer field, running the IT department at Shiloh Industries in Dickson, TN has been a fulfilling and exciting experience. Before Shiloh, owning and running my own business installing and servicing networks and Telecommunications for Businesses while being uniquely challenging proved to be a very educational experience. For 19 years prior to the computer industry working in the Telecommunications field, installing and servicing Business Telephone Systems set the groundwork for my eventual career in the computer industry. And joining the USMC at age 18, to receive physical and mental training while beginning my education in electronics was the beginning of my training where learning to be a good citizen in our society.
