Server Admin During The Day, Tech Enthusiast During The Night.

My fascination with computers started when I was about 7 years old, right after my family and I decided to make a change in our lives and move to the Sunny State Of Florida.  My parent’s upgraded to a Windows XP workstation and handed me their old Windows 98 workstation with a CRT monitor, and Dial-Up service provided by American Online.  Since then, my fascination and passion for technology in general has greatly strengthened.  When I was in middle school, I told my father that I someday wanted to build my own computer.  At that time, it seemed nearly impossible and felt like I had a long way to go before I felt comfortable doing so.  I eventually did build my own computer at the age of 20.

I did not go to my local high school because I was zoned for it, I went to it because I was interested in their computer academy.  My daily schedule was scheduled around my daily computer classes.  While in high school, I did learn a bit about computers and how they work, however, most of what was taught to me, I already knew from messing around with computers as a hobby after school.  As time went on during my four dreaded long years of schooling, I found a category in technology that I was highly obsessed with, “web hosting” and Linux in particular. When high school graduation came around, I graduated with 2 certifications in Adobe Photoshop, and did make an attempt at earning a CCNA degree from taking computer networking based classes.  I was also running a project offering free web-hosting from a sponsored free server.  Before I ended that project, my server was hosting over 500 active websites.

Since graduation and ending my web hosting project, I have attended years of college, going for a certification in IT.  I know I want IT as my career, however, I’m not exactly sure what in IT I want.  Previously, I was employed at a local family-owned company working as a Level 2 Help Desk / Onsite Technician.  Since being employed with this company, I have obtained an AS Certificate in Server Administration from my local college.  I am currently employed working for a software company as a fully remote Server Admin.  I am also working on a project, TechIntruder.  I’m not exactly sure what I see TechIntruder exactly being, however, for now it will launch as a tech blog with the slogan “Intruding Your Tech Knowledge One Blog Post At A Time”.

If you want to get in touch with me, it’s pretty easy to do so.  I am open to any tech-related questions and am open to paid advertisements for my blog, TechIntruder, and open to any freelance work.
