Wow. Since I joined up to help my school website in high school I've wanted to be seen as a "computer guru." Today, an Operations Manager at my work put a label on my desk after I installed their label making software for them. It read "David Kaminski - IT Guru" and it hit me. Five years after creating my own "business" where I fixed peoples computers and made little websites and did networking and training and troubleshooting for small businesses and residential customers, I've got what I was looking for. I also volunteered as a Webmaster at my high school, took many CBT courses regarding web design (Flash, Dreamweaver, ASP, ActionScript, etc.) and networking and administration (CCNA, MCSA, A+, etc.) I'm 20 now, and I'm here! It's amazing, I walk into work with a smile on my face every day! Just a little thank you to everyone for helping me get where I wanted to be! Now to set a new goal! |

I was blessed with a great family and supportive friends, but it really seems to be all about finding somehting you like and doing it to help others! I've also found, the more things I like/love, the happier I am. |

Next step? I'm thinking -master the position I'm in -make the IT department a thing to be admired (security, automation) for a low cost (open source, unused assets on hand in the server software) -some outside training to master the software involved (MCSE, CCNP) Should take about 5 months. Then I'll try to optimize maintenance to close to nothing. |
