You never know what will send you down a path.

I’ve spent almost 25 years working technology and have put a huge amount of effort into learning new things. I couldn’t even guess how much time I’ve invested in it.

Here's how I first got interested in Technology:

After years of using family computers, I finally bought my first machine.

The problem was that I didn’t know much about computers worked. I had done some programming in middle school and high school, but that was about it. My “new” computer was a home built system that I wanted to upgrade.

But how do I do that?

About this time, my grandparents took their computer to an electronics chain for repairs. It came back with spare parts. According to my grandmother, they said they didn’t know what it was for.

There was no way I was going to let that happen to me.

I signed up for a PC upgrade and repair class as the local junior college as soon as I could. Through this class I found out that I enjoyed knowing how computers worked. Less than a year later I decided to work in computing as a systems administrator and started my training.

That turning point has provided for my family for a long time now.
