I am a Year Up of Rhode Island alum, Trained in Information Technology. I am learning soft and hard skills, public speaking, time management, and organization. I have taken classes in Customer Service, Information Technology, Computer Hardware and Software, Business Writing and Public Speaking. With this program, I would like to continue pursuing and eventually secure a career that allows me to work with my hands and use the technology and skills I have learned. I have always wanted to be someone who could fix something with his hands and be proud of the outcome. This all started when my father asked me to help him fix a phone he purchased online. I went on YouTube and learned to factory reset the phone, change the front screen, and camera. I basically self-taught myself. That motivation continued when I got my first car and built it from scratch. All of that has led me to this amazing program that allows me to learn and pursue a career in IT.
Listed skills include Microsoft Office, Sales, Time Management, Retail Sales, and 6 others.
