Collin Barkle
Summary
Enrolled with the running-start program to pursue my degree in Systems Administration while still enrolled in Highschool, I learned the bases of what it takes to administrate a network environment and how physical server equipment interacts with virtual servers. After graduating I worked security and continued to learning more on the network space leading into my current job at REC Silicon as a Systems Administrator. Where I continued to learn and develop my skills as well learn more about how companies use datacenter like configurations to control large equipment and operations. I am more then willing to learn more about new environments as well as lend ideas to help environments expand with the growth of work.
