About Mary
I have worked in the IT industry since 1995. When I graduated college into a recession, I took what work I could find, which didn't need my degree. I couldn't understand the help wanted section because of all the computer acronyms, but those were pages of opportunity - the only jobs. I found an intensive program at a computer vocational school to help adapt to the future, and got a job right away in my field.
