Brady MacDonald’s Summary

Since I have been doing IT type work for about 15 years now, I have done a little bit of everything from web programming to network architecture. My main focus at the moment is system engineering. I am one of the few remaining "soup to nuts" IT guys out there and can pretty much do it all.

I really like working with end customers on the design and implementation phase of an IT project. I feel that IT should be a helpful component of a business instead of a hindrance.
