Computers

I loved computers since I was a child. I've built several gaming and workstation pcs for not only myself but friends and family. When I built my house I wired all the networking CAT6 cables throughout. Then installed a patch panel to a central location. When I worked for Mediacom, I had some experience working in the server building that supplies multiple areas including Milton,Pace,NAS Pensacola, Atmore, and Gulf Breeze. It absolutely fascinated me. I always wanted to be involved in IT for a long time and never made the move to get into it until now.
