Until 2008 I worked in a new construction field, however in March of that year I got hired by an IT company as I was looking for something different. And that was it! I thought I found what I always was looking for whole my life! However after working with enterprise level computer hardware for over five years and getting about ten different certification from CompTIA, Dell, HP and Microsoft I think the most enjoyment I receive when I get to work with people. I've been a shift lead for over two years working with teammates coming from very different cultures and having drastically different world views, yet everyone I worked with had something in common with me and that helped us to find common ground for friendly and respectful communication.
Technology is a strong side of my professional life and I am willing and able to learn new technology as required, however I really want to work with people as a team manager. When my job was permanently terminated I saw a great opportunity to advance my people and management skills and enrolled into Edmonds Community College Business Management ATA program. I believe this is the best decision to date I made about advancing my career. I am really looking forward to my internship as I believe I can make a difference in the world.
My interests include computer hardware (taking computers apart, repairing, upgrading, etc.), programming languages (Common Lisp is the most attractive one), psychology (some of the most fascinating discoveries are made in this field) and plain simple science fiction (books and movies).
