Personal Profile

Who am I?

profile

Hi! My name is James. I am currently an IT Professional working as a contractor for the VA. I support end users for a wide range of issues including VPN connectivity and access to network resources. I really enjoy working with technology because it is both rewarding and challenging. There is nothing like the satisfaction you get when you help a customer solve their problems!

While I enjoy working with all kinds of technology, my true passion lies in software development. Over the past four years I have been able to utilize all of the free resources available to students to teach myself how to be a developer. I enjoy working with many different languages and frameworks but if I had to pick a favorite I would say it is C# and the .NET platform.

I am a fast learner and committed to a lifetime of learning and growing both personally and professionaly. I currently hold several industry certifications including CompTIA Network+ and Security+. I believe in honesty, integrity and most importantly loyalty. If given the opportunity to work for you, I will be an asset for your business that you can depend on. The best way to reach me is by calling my cell phone but I will respond to emails as well. I look forward to talking with you!
