About
Roj is a nickname I picked up in college. It’s short for Roger which everyone shortens to Rog once they know me. But my roommate in college was taking way too many french classes and decided to make it Roj and it stuck.
I’ve been working in the Information Technology field since 1993 (officially). I’ve done a little of just about everything but mostly systems and network administration. I’ve built networks from as little as a small office network, to one that housed billions of dollars of financial data. I like to get my hands into just about anything that runs on a computer and have been known to write the occasional program.
My first computer was a TRS-80 Color Computer my parents bought for me way back in 1982. I was in high school at the time and sold my parents on it by saying it would help develop a career for me. I spent hours on that thing, getting it to do some great stuff. Loved that computer. And it was just enough to pull me out of the accounting career I set for myself in college (I claim insanity during my college years — more than I care to go into here). Thanks Mom and Dad!
