Hello, I hope all is well with you as you read this. I’m a student at the University of North Texas working on my BAS Learning Technologies. I work full time in the Information Technology field. I am a fan of technology, music, and food. I’m also interested in movies and watching sports. The visit my website button takes you to Survive Technology company I run on my off time.

I started my career in technology while serving in the US Army. My military occupational specialty was as an Information Technology Specialist. I have been in the technology field for ten years. I have held positions in Tech Support, Junior Network Administrator, Systems Administrator, and in Security.

I lost my best friend Tank earlier this year in February. It was the hardest thing I have experienced. I still miss my guy. He was 13 years old.

I am not sure if it is because my first job was Chik-fil-A when I was 16 going on 17. Maybe it could be that my parents decided to move us in the last semester of my senior year of high school. One of the experiences prompted me to get a GED before we got to our new destination. Then I began working and it made me appreciate customer service at an early age.

While helping a local police department with certain tech and fraud cases I began to see that there was something missing. Thousands of people get scammed out of millions of dollars each year. But you don't hear about those stories until it too late. I created a program along a Detective and Lawyer that pointed out and guided the community on ways to avoid getting scammed.

Being able to help people survive technology is what I do best.
