After 19 years in IT, with the last 9 specifically in Security, I've become obsessed with helping people solve problems and spreading the cyber word. Working in IT is fun for hands-on folks. But for those that stay, you'll find that they love to help others. This goes naturally with teaching, so it's no surprise that some of the most grizzled IT veterans are good instructors. All good instructors want to see their students apply the knowledge that was taught. I want to take it a step further. My goal is to not only bring applicable knowledge into my courses but also to shift your perspective, even by a little bit. If you’re interested in the topics I teach, I’d love to see you on the inside.Enroll in one of my classes today.
