Many years later, after a challenging and less than successful initial bid to facilitate my entry into the professional world of computers, I found myself with a second opportunity to further my education and shortly after retiring from military service; I received a Bachelor’s of Arts degree in Social Science from Thomas Edison State College.

In reaching out, I offered my skills, abilities and talents to a variety of employers that would have been able to capitalize and benefit from the use of those skills sets.

While employed with Apple I have diligently continued to build upon my set of skills and abilities while bringing to bear my talents of personal interaction, speech and soft skills as my job puts me in direct contact with the general public daily.
My goal is to one day become a network systems administrator for Apple. Based on my existing skill sets and work performance to date, you can be
