I have been teaching others about computers since I first learned in 1995. From MS Office products and HTML 1.0 in the early days, to networking, firewalls and assorted disciplines of cyber security for more than 27 years. My goal is to help inspire the next generation, so that when I retire...the cyber world continues on protecting data, people and property from those with malicious intent.

I have been working in IT for over 20 years. I have extensive knowledge of Waterfall, Agile, Scrum and JIRA. I coach Agile Practices, with emphasis on the Scrum Master and Product Owner Roles.I can break down Agile and help you get ready for testing as a Scrum Master or Product Owner in an easy to absorb way while teaching you the benefits.Many companies are requiring Scrum certification as well as practitioners to be ready for Agile Transformation.

I'm a graduate of many institutions of higher learning, both in the academic community as well as the military. I have graduate degrees from the University of Maryland and Suffolk University (Boston, MA), and a Bachelor's degree from the University of Central Florida. Recently I went back to school to get some new skills in Cybersecurity from a Technical College near my home, and I'm always on the hunt for further IT certification, which is my career field. I'm a never-give-upper, who knows what it is to fail and how to extricate myself from that potential situation. I'm huge on "process" and sticking to what works, and knowing if and when to quit (retrograde, not retreat). My strengths are situational awareness and reserved friendliness. Search terms that would find me would be "tenacity of purpose" and "lifelong learner who cares"
