Bio

I'm a serial entrepreneur - have started over twenty companies in my career, all tech based, utilizing my skills in network engineering and systems programming. I teach a (Cisco) CCNA/CCNP prep course in the summers in Aurora, IL, and have mentored many students (interns) in C and Python programming as well.

I'm a serial entrepreneur - have started over twenty companies in my career, all tech based, utilizing my skills in network engineering and systems programming. I teach a (Cisco) CCNA/CCNP prep course in the summers in Aurora, IL, and have mentored many students (interns) in C and Python programming as well. Nearing retirement I feel the need to pass on my knowledge and experience to the group we will be passing this world on to.

My obsession with computers began in seventh grade and I have never looked back. I strive to produce that enthusiasm in my own children (three girls under twelve) and have been successfully bringing summer interns into the productive workforce for four years. I have a Computer Science Engineering degree from University of Colorado, Boulder.

If you are a self-motivated student with a desire to turn your interest in network and/or programming into real-world opportunities in the marketplace, I might be the right tutor/mentor for you.
