Additional Information
I have been interested in leaving this job, I'm at a point in my life where i want a new challenge and more responsibility. Also, I want a career change. Instead physical labor, id like to work my mind. I have peaked an interest in computer technology for the past year, currently on a self-taught route learning the coding language Python, I've completed one book so far and on to my second. Coding and cyber security both are an option for me, I love learning new things and how stuff operates behind the scenes and coding and cyber security help achieve this. Though i do not have experience with cyber security, I am eager to learn, and would love to dive into this felid.
