I wanted to take a moment to express my sincere gratitude for the opportunity to connect with you.

Allow me to introduce myself: I am a former Service member who recently graduated from Coastal Carolina University, where I completed the Cisco Network Academy program and earned my degree in Information Security. Additionally, I obtained certifications in A+ and Network, and completed training through Per Scholas IT Readiness Program. With over 12 years of experience in Information Technology, including more than 9 years specifically in Education IT, I bring a wealth of knowledge and skills to the table.

Throughout my career, I have had the privilege of working with various educational software platforms such as Schoology, Salesforce, and PowerSchool. My dedication to staying current in the field has led me to pursue self-paced training to obtain Security+ and Network+ certifications, with the ultimate goal of achieving my CCNA certification. I firmly believe that staying abreast of technological advancements is essential in the ever-changing landscape of Information Technology.

While my proficiency in IT led me to this field, my passion lies in education. I have always found fulfillment in serving the community, particularly where children are involved. Whether it was as a Community Organizer for the first Boys & Girls Club of Union County NJ, a Military Recruiter providing career guidance, or a Student Counselor with the HYMN Organization, helping young
