About
My main objective is to gain as much experience as I can in IT so that I may eventually be able to work for a fortune 500 company and run my own business. The biggest achievement that I have accomplished was getting my Master's degree in cyber security. Gaining the knowledge through the classes and then submitting the final paper was gratifying.
