About

Professional Philosophy:  As an analyst and problem solver, I rely on listening, analytical and critical thinking, and good interpersonal skills when helping others with technology. I enjoy opportunities to work with and grow using the latest technologies, along with projects and support that push me to further develop my potential.

No one approach is right for all individuals or projects, so my formal training, work experience, and self-studies are my guides. I am skilled in the areas including, but not limited to, system analysis, project management, staff training and development, procedure documentation, hardware and software support, programming fundamentals, application configuration, maintenance, and troubleshooting in an enterprise applications environment.  

On to the cool Stuff:  I reside in the greater Atlanta, GA area. I love to chill out listening to my growing collection of music. I’m a visual artist, I got started creating art as a hobby, around the age of 8. To this day I still practice as a means of relaxing. It’s my life’s balance.  I enjoy reading genres like how-to-manuals, history, current issues, physics, and science.  I also like organic gardening in my backyard. I’m all in for a greener planet.  I won’t bore you about me, ⇓ see what others say below ⇓.
