Biography |
Hello, everyone! I have been working in the field of Information Technology (IT) for over 27 years. My undergradate degree is in Management Information Systems with a minor in Mathematics. I obtained a Master of Science degree in Business Computer Information Systems and also a Master of Business Administration.
Throughout my career, I have worked in several areas of IT including software development, project management, database administration, and configuration management.
In my career I also have to be able to communicate effectively. One tool that was helpful was joining the Toastmasters International organization. As part of the organization, I have achieved the Competent Communicator Award.
I am looking forward to teaching both the Digital Technology and Communcation merit badges.
