Overview

If you are reading this, chances are you are interested in breaking into tech and you have questions. I receive questions often and what I’ve realized is that many of them are the same and I often felt like I was regurgitating information. I figured I’d provide information in a concise format for everyone to reference from and share.

My Background

If we are not connected on LinkedIn already, definitely consider connecting.

Feel free to follow me on social media:


My introduction to technology was nontraditional.

I was born into the lifestyle of boxing. My father was a cornerman, cutman, and trainer. I loved Boxing; but my awareness about the danger of the brutal sport grew over time.

In parallel, I loved using my mom’s AOL dialup desktop and she used that as a bribery tool to get me to do well in school.

I didn’t have any other passions besides boxing, but I was (and still is) a curious learner.

Here’s a slide deck that I present at schools and events. If you know a school or event that would like for me to present, feel free to let me know and pass on this slide deck.
