9. Add anything you want about your interests, skills, job projects, etc. that might help the instructor and students understand you and your computer/Internet skills and interests better.

I've always been good with computers. Though, I would like to be a bit better. I have a friend who is studying to do IT work and security for Xerox. He shows me a couple of neat things with my computer and other linux OS's.

My brother has always been a huge nerd when it comes to computers, but instead of mocking him for it, I use this to my advantage. He has taught me how to format, download, upload, connect drives, and do many other things on multiple OS's.

Though I know more than most when it comes to computers, luckily there is always more to learn and I would enjoy learning more in this class. Specifically about connecting network drives. For some reason I'm having issues with maintaining connections between laptops on my network and I'd like to figure out why this is occurring.

10. What are your hobbies or what do you like to do outside of school and work ?

I enjoy reading. I like my PS3. I spend time traveling, learning, and exploring with my girlfriend. Hopefully I will be working for Alex Olbrecht at the Eastern Economic Association here at Ramapo, this coming September.

I have been a photographer since highschool. I play guitar( not well, but i can get around). And I enjoy TED talks.
