"I stay current on technology trends in a number of ways. I read various journals and articles on the subjects I am interested in and those that are relevant to the business of my clients. I also learn a lot by talking with my peers, clients, and competitors.

I have taken classes and engaged in shadowing opportunities to learn specific technologies and skills. I recently completed a network security class to increase my knowledge in that area."
