WHY NETCRAFTSMEN?

It’s an opportunity to work with smart people.

WHAT’S YOUR FAVORITE PART ABOUT YOUR JOB?

I like learning and applying new technologies. Two recent examples are software defined networking and network automation.

WHAT DO YOU LIKE TO DO OUTSIDE OF WORK?

I enjoy boating on vessels from kayaks to large catamarans. It uses different parts of my brain and can be very relaxing. I also spend time building and flying model airplanes and helicopters.
