"Technology has been my career and I have made many turns in the IT arena. From systems development to project management to IT security, etc. I love the challenge of learning new technology. I love the passion and intelligence of IT personnel. I don't like senior management not taking IT and especially IT security seriously but, this is mitigated through education and awareness training."
