Adjunct Professor
Mike was born and raised in a small town in Utah. He worked on his uncle's farm throughout his high school years. Education was not on the priority list in a farming community. He has a variety of skills in the job market including farmer, forklift operator, long-haul truck driver, and journeyman plumber.
After being a journeyman plumber for a couple of years, Mike decided he wanted to go back to school. He completed his Associates degree in Information Technology at Bridgerland Applied Technology College (BATC), a community college, in Logan, Utah. He decided he wanted to continue his education further and went to Weber State University in Utah. During this portion of his education, Mike met a professor who strongly encouraged him to consider teaching at some point in his career to give back what was provided to him.
Mike received his B.S in Telecommunication Management in 2006. Upon receiving his degree, he moved up to the Seattle area and started working as a contractor with Cingular Wireless. AT&T bought Cingular and he has been working for AT&T ever since as a Senior Network Support Engineer. Mike looks forward to teaching now and hopes to provide the mentorship that was given to him as he went back to school for a higher education.
