About Crystal

As an Information Systems Manager, I provide technical assistance and expertise regarding information systems, telecommunications, and network security requirements.

I transitioned from active service in October 2014. I moved to Houston in 2015 and found myself having to find a job so I chose JROTC. I took a break from IT.

Now, I would like assistance transitioning my military iT experience to a career in the private sector that would help me achieve both long-term and short-term goals.
