I started in the IT business in 1984 when I started Datanamics Inc. which sold computers, and peripherals  to the small business community, and quickly expanded to selling hardware. By 1987 we started delivering Value Added Services. In 1991, I founded Corporate Automation Inc. which was a company that sold and serviced the micro to small business community with networking, accounting, and hardware and its services. As demand arose we expanded to include data networking, became a Microsoft Partner a Dell reseller, and a Sage certified MAS 90/200 consultant and reseller. Soon we began delivering internet services and became a Covad & Cisco Partner. In 2004 I created CorpInet LLC, as the melting pot for all these services. Personally I am currently in the process of training as a Certified Cisco Networking Engineer.
