I have worked in the Communications industry for over 33 years, with over 20 of those years as a Technician in Central offices all over the State of Oklahoma. I was part of the change over from Analog to Digital installing new switches and preparing Central offices for the change over. I over saw the installation, turn up and testing of the first DSL equipment installed in Central Offices in the State of Oklahoma as well as AT&T's version of IPTV U-verse. I am fully Fiber Optic equipment trained and have been a Vendor Manager over seeing the installation and turn up of all the cutting edge Fiber Optic Transmission equipment in service in the Central offices of AT&T. I have also done the acceptance testing for the equipment once it was turned over to AT&T and then I was responsible for maintaining the equipment and running new circuits to it. I am a computer geek also who is constantly seeking info on the latest and greatest new technologies and am well versed and trained in the Microsoft Office Suite and Windows operating systems. I am also a Smart Phone aficionado who has an advanced understanding of Apple and Android operating systems and phones.
