My Background
I am a satellite and radio systems telecommunications specialist by trade and training.
My journey started when I joined the Air Force and left Wyoming; where I worked from Louisiana to Japan and Afghanistan and Korea before retiring out of the D.C. region.
Now I am a technologist - I bridge the gap between technicians and engineers to fill the Subject Matter Expert sphere of telecommunications support!
