well i graduated in may from PSU with an information systems 4 yr. we were one of the first groups to go through so we had a ton of stuff thrown at us pretty randomly so i have experiance with a whole lot from oracle to networking. my strenghts are networking and old school html but i’ve had 2 years of programming in pascal (long time ago) and c++ but never got beyond that because of school. i also have a nice background in business and customer support.

i guess i should also state that what has helped me a lot is my ability to pick up on things quick and problem solving. i noticed in your profile that you do network stuff, i didn’t have much of it at psu but when i was at tech school networking was all i did…although microsoft makes that shit easy now…but that was back with NT 4.0 networking.
