About Michael Wright

I remember it as if it were yesterday, my first computer. At 15 that’s what I received, I immediately began exploring windows 95 eager to learn this system, I sat for countless hours till I felt I had mastered my system and all the software I had installed on it. I then decided one day to crack open the brain of the computer and what I saw blew me away. More than 10 years later every so often when I reflect on my work history, I remember all the times I was privileged enough to work for a company who allowed me to expand my knowledge and be the primary point of contact for all I.T. related tasks. If it had not been for my grandfather giving me my first PC computer or the local cable television Director Darryl Leyden for allowing me to discover my love for technology, both Macintosh and PC, who knows where I might be today. Now, with an Associate of Science degree from L.A. Recording, while furthering my education working toward a B.S. degree in I.T, I find myself looking to take all the knowledge I have gained in the last 10 years and put it to good use at a company that can utilize my love for technology, customer service & the opportunity to be a successful employee. I have had the privilege of knowing many great individuals on my journey to discover myself and further my career, my goal now is to give back in every way I can.
