I have always enjoyed working with computers even when I was young. It used to drive my parents crazy when I would change settings and take apart our computer at home. I have mostly worked in the technical support and system administration field throughout my career.\u00a0 My most recent job was as a System Administrator for a small software company that develops paging software for Cisco VoIP phones in Madison, WI. There, I had the opportunity to work with lots of Cisco VoIP products, Google Apps, Webex, VMWare and various other software applications that the developers would use for testing.\u00a0 As a System Administrator, I had to have a lot of knowledge of the various software products. As the new Technology Training and Advancement Advocate for the ICIT department, I am excited to teach users the ins and outs of the many different software applications available to them on campus.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><em>Something people don\u2019t know about you<\/em><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Back in my younger crazy days, right out of high school, I used to drive a Kawasaki Ninja motorcycle.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.uww.edu\/uptimes\/files\/2014\/05\/kawasaki_ninja_zx-6r_1998-1999_l.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1405 aligncenter\" style=\"border: 0px none; margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;\" alt=\"kawasaki_ninja_zx-6r_1998-1999_l\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.uww.edu\/uptimes\/files\/2014\/05\/kawasaki_ninja_zx-6r_1998-1999_l.jpg\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em>What was your first job?<\/em><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>When I was old enough to get my workers permit, my first job was cleaning dog kennels at a local animal shelter I used to volunteer at.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><em>What\u2019s your favorite piece of technology?<\/em><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Probably my iPhone.
