I have been working in the I.T. industry for 12 years. I am a natural born technologists. In middle school, I taught myself to program BASIC. In high school, I won awards for state/national math and engineering tests. In college, my interests were nurtured with a student programming (Perl) job and Computer Information Science (CIS) classes (*nix, Pascal, C/C++).
While working with to convert REVCO's point of sale systems to CVS point of sales systems, I learned the value of buckling down and just getting the job done. Once, during a national snow emergency, this meant climbing on the roof to clear the snow off the satellite receiver in order to receive a data transmission. When I started my first help desk position, I hardly knew how to launch a MS Office product. In 60 days, I was the desk's MS subject matter expert. At the Ohio State University, I studied for the MSCE. I used this knowledge to log our server performance and justify server upgrades after 2 previous justification attempts failed. At Qwest, I automated their account creation process making it possible to re-assing 35 employees during and after the US West merger. At Chicago Public Schools (via IBM, et. al), I saved Chicago Public school ~$300,000 annually be linking their NT 4.0 / Exhange 5.5 accounts directly to the HR database. At Nationwide, I lead configuration management efforts in the web space and enterprise leading to over $1 million dollars annually in cost savings, and to significant quality improvements and other soft values.
