Tomorrow marks the end of my chapter at DB&A.  After almost five years with DB&A tomorrow will be my last day.

The last five years have been nothing short of amazing, challenging and frustrating (at times).  During the past five years I have grown professionally and learned so much and in so many ways; additionally, I have met so many amazing people, from all over the world.  I very thankful for the opportunities I have had with DB&A, for working with DB&A has truly made me the professional I am today.

Thinking back over the past years, I have accomplished a lot such as …

• Nuclear Research for the sales and marketing department
• Countless Network upgrades for the Marketing Center
• Moved the Marketing Center/Corporate Headquarters to a new location
• Upgrade memory in all the MC’s computers
• Purchased new computers for the entire marketing center
• Upgrade the Marketing Center/Corporate Headquarters’ server
• Upgrade GoldMine from dbase to SQL
• Rolled out companywide email
• Rolled out antivirus software
• Fixed multiple computer issues
• Setup multiple smart phones
• Wrote a IT policies and producers handbook
• Implemented a photo system
• Began a client Database
• Took the project library from a hard copy library to digital library
• Fixed Multiple server issues

In about a week I will begin a new chapter of career as an archivist for the city of San Antonio.  The job is my dream job – it is what I have studied and worked towards since I have graduate from my master’s program.  I am excited about the opportunities I will have with the city and I am excited about the type of work I will be doing.

While I feel like I accomplished a lot with the DB&A I feel like I have became “used up” meaning I feel like I lost my passion for fixing computer and implementing IT solutions, rather my passion is digitally preserving documents and data for the future.  Iam look forward to the awesomeness, challenges and frustrations my new position brings.
