I started in telecommunications back in 1998 for a company called GAP communications. There I learned how to install and test networks I also learned to install and program Nortel equipment everything from the small key systems up to the Opt 81's from there I went to work for Williams communications running service tickets and installs. In 2000 I was recruited by Nextel. I was there until 2008 . In 2002 I started my own company Texas Telcom and am currently still there. Thanks to Cisco I have been able to double my company's growth last year and have hired my first full time employee this year, with plans to hire another before year end.
