Week 1 - Introduction

Hello, World!

I thought it was fitting to start this blog off with the phrase you learn to program first in every language I've studied. I am an IT security student at Bellevue University, studying to get my Master's in Computer Information System with a security concentration. My ultimate goal is to be a college professor. I have worked in the IT field since 1999, and before that, I was a hard core computer tinkerer. True story: The X-Files got me into computers. I was a huge fan of the show, and a friend told me that there was tons of stuff online about the show. One search, and I was hooked. I was making websites in no time, and teaching myself programming and computer maintenance skills from there. I have worked at an ISP, done tech support, web design, systems administration, worked as an IT Director and computer teacher at a small private school, and now work at a university managing a computer lab. I hope you will enjoy my perspective on IT security!
