Full Biography
I'm an IT Generalist/systems administrator with 30 years+ of IT experience -- having worked for everything from major defense contractors to small law firms, there isn't much in IT I haven't done at some point. I've also done work as an Investigative reporter, music critic, food critic, photographer, and writer.
One of my strengths is my ability to jump into any role and quickly learn and master the skills needed to fulfil requirements of that position.
I'm currently looking for new opportunities, especially in the Dallas/Fort Worth area.
