"I worked with the U.S. Army for 5 and a half years. I've traveled to multiple countries due to my assignments. I loved working in my signal field, working with the computers, routers and switches I was assigned. Since being in the Army I have sparked quite an interest in learning to work with Cisco equipment and would love to keep up with the skills I have learned."
