Hello all!

I'm a long-time lurker and figured I should finally properly introduce myself. I'm an IT Team Lead from Pittsburgh with a background in information security. I currently work in the health and human services field, supporting business operations that aid states in reporting on drug prevention block grants.

I'm hoping to take on more responsibility in the near future, and am very thankful for the service provided by Mark and Mike and the collective experience of the forum members. This is a tremendous community, and the professionalism on these boards is practically unheard of on the Internet.

Go Steelers!

There are some other folks from Pittsburgh on the forum. And it's great to see more.

Maybe it's time to make another attempt at a Pittsburgh MT meet-up.

Welcome Brandon. I saw you lurking in the corner. I just figured you were probably so gun-shy about HIPAA that you didn't want to expose your personal information. :)

Welcome to the forums, Brandon.

There is a lot of wisdom and experience here. I came out of a team lead position and into front line management in the last year and I credit Manager Tools and this forum for a lot of the skills I gained to do so.

Please stick around - ask questions, share experience, and realize your dreams!

This gave me a good chuckle. Guess it was close enough to the truth to strike a nerve ;)

Welcome Brandon,

Information security. I need to catch up here. I could have utilized my resources last year for my HIM class.

Good to have you in the forums.
