IT Management... I could spell IT without being given one letter

I was a young PM (26) for a bandit in crystal city and all the other PMs were retired Navy supply officers. We won a nationwide network design contract and each office was given a region and had to hire engineering teams. I had more experience with computers than any other PM so I was picked.

Had to teach myself basic networking skills to hire and lead the team and it became my career.
