What about that CCIE?

Congratulations on the new position

Well I got my A.S degree in Computer networking about 1.5 years ago. I have been working pretty solid low to mid level IT jobs for 2.5 years. I will graduate with a B.S in Data Com. at the end of this summer and I have the two certs.

A big part of it was a friend that helped me get the job. He was moving on and helped me prepare to take his spot. I couldn't thank him enough. The friend I speak of, I met on this forum and he saw how dedicated and driven I am and decided to give me a chance. So thank you steve and thank you techexams!

Most of my skills are from my current job, school, and self-study for certs. Thanks guys.

Well ya CCNP is still a big goal of mine. But CCNP isn't like a longterm goal i guess. Becoming educated and getting a meaningful career was my lifelong goal. I will definately complete CCNP when I graduate.

I am way to early in the game to speak of CCIE. One day CCIE, one day.

True dedication always pays off. Always nice to hear people who are go-getters. I know you are one of the people who deserve to have that goal fulfilled.
