Work/Life Examination Portfolio

I am currently working in Flatirons Solutions as a Systems Engineer working with the Federal Aviation Administration 's traffic flow management division . I was selected for this position for two main reasons my advanced knowledge in computer network operations and proven ability of modernization of proprietary hardware and software . Most of my work here , I 'm closely working and dealing with the FAA 's Network Operations , System Analysts , Subject Matter Experts , Developers and other personnel to establish an open architecture platform with a robust framework for implementing enhancements operational improvements p

Continuous learning will be a must until the day I retire Now I deemed it necessary to enroll in a graduate program
