History of the MD of the PC

Education:
My work in computers began in 1982 when I graduated in the top ten of my class. I attended (ATI) "Associated
Technical Institute" of Woburn, MA. I entered the work force and got some experience as a field service
representative for a copier company. I left the industry for a time to pursue a more lucrative job in
manufacturing. Later, I pursued further training to catch up with the latest technology doing self study for my
CompTIA A+ Certification and my Network+ Certification. I also trained for and passed my (MCP) Microsoft
Certified Professional certification. As my business grew further, I pursued MSCE training using Learnkey
software and training videos, as well as read through Microsoft's MCSE training manuals for windows 2003
Server. I have not tested for MSCE and am not certified in it officially. You will see, however, than I have plenty
of experience in dealing with Windows servers.

I also am certified as a Microsoft Office Specialist, Trained especially in Excel. I can write Macros, VBA, and
some Visual Basic solutions. I would be considered an expert in Excel and have taught training classes and
provided Excel solutions for many businesses. I have written programs to store data, create barcoded labels, call
center software using Skype-Excel as a data interface, order systems, QC Programs, and shipping and receiving
solutions.

Experience:
After my initial schooling, I then completed a year in field service for a copier company called A-Copy out of
Westwood, MA. I then left the computer field for a better paying job in manufacturing. While working for the
manufacturer, they discovered my abilities to program and repair computers, and they set me to working for
them part-time maintaining their network. I also wrote a 190 page program using Excel to do QC reporting over
their network, store and record their production, control their order system, and provide labeling and shipping
and receiving data through a SQL database.

As I've become known, I  have had requests from other companies to assist them via programming and network
administration. Eventually, I made the decision to go full time. I had worked part
time since 1999 under the name of Andrew's Diversified Services Co. I have been full time since March, 2005 and
with the decision to go full time, I changed the business name to MD of the PC.

Since that time, I have worked on the following equipment:
workstations- DOS, Win 3.1, Win 95, Win 98, Win XP, Win NT, Win 7
Servers-  Server NT, Windows 2000, Server 2003 Both SBS and Enterprise, Win Server 2008, Linux
I maintain hundreds of clients and 6 servers of various types.
