Robbie Ferguson Email & Phone Number

I'm a Linux and Windows expert, strong in networking, security and working under-the-hood. My background is in programming (many languages, including Python, PHP, JavaScript, bash and several others), but as a seasoned broadcaster (multiple recipient of Top 100 Tech Podcasters award), I've found my niche in communication while still keeping active as a sysadmin via my full-time employ.I'm customer service oriented, with a big focus on cybersecurity. At my day job, from 2009 up until Q4 2022 I focused on ESET sales support for businesses of all sizes across Canada with a small assortment in the USA. I'm proud to be a multi-year recipient of ESET's MVP award and I am personally a member of the ESET Partner Council. In December, 2022, after nearly 14 years working in cybersecurity, my employer discarded my position and moved me to Helpdesk Level 2 (IT Support). In January 2023 I resigned from this position.The following month I began working for the Ontario Public Service Employees Union (OPSEU) in their IT department, starting my tenure in the role of Network Specialist and then moving to Senior IT Analyst as my permanent role. Working for them quickly confirmed that leaving my previous employ was a very good life decision.Outside my full-time work, I continue to host and produce the long-running YouTube channel, Category5 Technology TV, which is rocking the tech-education space with "Hollywood style" visual effects. I've welcomed people who have been in space on my show (Mark Shuttleworth), and people who pretend to have been to space (creators of Seth MacFarlane's "The Orville"). I have never been to space, but I have been inside The Matrix and was telefragged by an agent. I've battled Vecna in the Upside Down, and have been blown up by a creeper.I've been featured within a Netflix documentary in my role as a tech news anchor. I have a supplemental channel called "The Show Show" where I teach video production techniques.Looking forward to connecting with you!
