 A multi-faceted technology guy that is constantly keeping his skills sharp while adding & expanding my skill set through education or hands-on experience whenever I have the opportunity. I began building my skill as a teenager when spent over 3 weeks in the summer properly learning and removing how to remove over 300 trojan horse viruses that had piggybacked onto .dll Windows run files. The quick understanding & enjoyment of my own computer doctor work led me to realize this was the area in life that I would want to pursue a career in.

 So, in 2010 I began formally getting educated & filling my skill set "tool belt", if you will. A+ Essentials & Computer Hardware were the first. Then I steered my focus toward a few more specialty arenas. I took CCNA 1 - 4 & CCNP 1 - 4, as well as CCNA Security at a verified & licensed Cisco Academy. Security became my main interest, so I tacked on Security+ during these years as well. 

 All of my desktop skills are purely from 15+ years of hands-on & personal use of Linux/Ubuntu distributions & Windows through each of its expressions. I am what s called a "Desktop Deployment Active"; meaning one who is at any given moment able to actively deploy a desktop OS & get to it. I keep a ring of flash drives with me almost everywhere I go at all times with 3 versions of Ubuntu, 1 Linux, & the latest version of Windows so that I am always ready. 

 The Crypto Currency arena listed in my abilities is also something I have had the privilege to be involved in since 2014, very early on in Cryptos' still very short time being around. More details in this department can be discussed more with anyone that is inquiring looking for help in this regard. 

 In 2023, I added to my skill set by furthering my security knowledge in Ethical Hacking, Network Hacking & Website Penetration Testing & Hacking as well as some Python programming skills. With these, I am able to perform complete penetration test, including information gathering & scanning to discover any vulnerable exploitation on a network or website. I can then offer & apply changes to given network/website to securely patch these vulnerabilities.
