With over 12 years in Information Technology I'm steal learning. I have found over the years in this industry to keep it simple and build relationships that last. The industry keeps growing and changing and I am having a lot of fun. My specialty I would say would be finding solutions. I enjoy my position as a Sales Engineer because it gives me the ability to talk to customers and engineer projects.
