Jim Asmussen Email & Phone Number

I obtained my Associate's degree in Computer Science with a focus in Networking / Security from ECPI in December of 2014. After an 18 month paid internship at EMC that I started before graduation, I was hired on as a permanent full-time employee. EMC was bought shortly thereafter by Dell in the biggest tech merger in history at the time and became DellEMC.During my time at DellEMC I learned many things. One of my main responsibilities was maintaining a network infrastructure consisting of two Arista 7512 core switches (business unit specific, hanging off the main cores of the lab which the Network Team maintained) with over 250 edge switches (Dell 4k, 5k, and 9k series) attached. I added each edge switch to the configuration and helped to maintain it over my last few years here.I have also helped manage a few virtual Fabric SANs (Brocade) consisting of 6 fabrics with over a dozen directors between them. I have personally configured and merged over 100 edge switches (Brocade 6510, 6520, 6620, and 6630 series mostly) and also loaded them with enterprise licensing. I set up most of the directors (X6-8 series) myself and performed zoning tasks and troubleshooting.On top of all this networking knowledge, I also have a broad understanding of cabling standards and the installation process of a wide range of equipment including the initial setups of many servers and data storage arrays.

Listed skills include Customer Service, Computer Hardware, Network Security, Network Administration, and 31 others.
