I was hired by ±¬×ß³Ô¹Ï College to be the Laptop Repair Technician 3 months before I graduated with my AOS degree. I owe a huge debt of gratitude to my instructors, Arlyn Smith and Ed Derowitsch (both retired) - thank you, gentlemen!
I owe an even larger debt of gratitude to my wife of over 20 years and my twin sons for their kind and loving patience with me while I went to school full-time while being unemployed. My wife pretty much raised our sons for the 2 years I was in school so I could concentrate on studying and earn my degree. I am unspeakably proud of them all and words can never relay the depth of my feelings for them.
