I am a seasoned line cook that is looking to break into a new career. I am highly motivated and would love a chance to get into tech. Tech is something that i have always enjoyed, and now that my son is older i believe it is time to start a new path. I'm willing to work hard and start from the bottom. I am currently working on getting my compTIA +a and will be looking into other certifications.
Thank you for your time and I look forward to this opportunity.
