What profession other than yours would you like to try?

It's difficult to see myself in any other profession because I truly love what I do, but I would love to do something that involves working with my hands and master a particular craft such as woodworking.

???The best way to summarize Ken's endorsement would be to quote a client, a CIO for an ISP in Brazil " It is imperitive that Ken continues to work with our company to plan, design, implement and manage our new NOC and network. Please be sure he is the lead for future engagements." Ken is perfect for a company looking for a top notch IT consultant that has the clients interests as his top priority.???
