me going. I enjoy teaching
what I know to others, and
I hope that by sharing my
experiences, I will someday
make a difference in the
ICT industry. My goals are to
come up with new ways to
introduce ICT industry-related
skills to younger kids, and to
work with the BICSI Technician
and Education Outreach
Subcommittee to increase
awareness of the many
industry opportunities.
My biggest advice to those
who think they would like to
give something a try but are
not sure, is just do it! Get out
there, try something new, don't
let anyone intimidate you and
do your best! It's not easy, but
it's definitely worth it. q
