Along with this I contracted with General Dynamics Information Technology in the 160th Signal Brigade S2 as a Security Support Specialist (Kuwait ) 2016-2018
I am currently a full time student pursuing an Associates Degree in Pre-Information Assurance, as well as working towards achieving the Comptia Security Plus certification in the near future.
I enjoyed my roll as a Security Support Specialist as well as Security Management, I also enjoy Information Technology, so I am pursuing one or both those fields collectively.
My hobbies are outdoors, I like to run, ride my bike, go the gym, hike on trails, work on my cars (when I can afford it). I also enjoy photography.
At the moment I am seeking input and mentorship in helping adjusting to the civilian market , as well as networking and possibly helping each other.
Look forward to hearing from you
James
