Goodbye Web Design, Hello Information Technology
After years of solely working on the internet, I’ve decided to switch gears. I have always been impressed by the server admins that I work with (remotely). Any problem that came up, a solution was never far away. I learned quite a bit about server maintenance from them, but I lacked the formal training. Shortly, before the Christmas holidays I decided to going back to school, to major in Information Technology. I am especially interested in the Security side of I.T.
