About Tucker Palmatier
I possess an insatiable appetite for knowledge. I make no exception for the complexity, or the demand on my time. Once I have exposed an area I can learn and develop from; I dig in and refuse to give up until I have satisfied my natural curiosity, and search for knowledge. I would describe myself as having an analytical viewpoint, but still able to articulate information to others without losing them in the details. Specialties: Positive and effective Leadership Windows/Unix/Linux Server Architecture Problem solving during stressful situations Accelerated Learning Emergency Medicine Fire Science and Technology Nuclear and Radiological Science
