SKILLS
I have experience working with RG-59, RG-6, RG-11, CAT-5, and CAT-3 cable both in the civilian world and in the military. I am currently employed with Virginia Beach City Public Schools, but prior to that I was a broadband cable technician with MCV Broadband and DOCOMO Pacific on Guam. I also served as a Fire Controlman, Third Class, in the United States Navy where I worked on the MK-86 Gun Fire Control System, including the AN-SPQ-9 TWS (Track While Scan) Radar and the AN/SPG-60 Anti-Air Warfare Radar and the related operating systems for these two radars. I have had a year’s worth of experience working with Arbortext, an XML editing software. In addition, I am proficient in the use of Microsoft Office Suite, including Word, Excell, and PowerPoint.
