About
My name is Nathaniel Carrothers. I currently work as a Network Troubleshooting Specialist for a cloud-based telecommunications hosting company. I am also currently attending a cyber security program through UNLV that is taught with a hands-on approach utilizing home lab environment tools such as Cisco Packet Tracer, Oracle VMWare, and TDXArena.
After 15 years as a chef, I felt I had reached an impasse where my goals no longer aligned with what I could achieve in the restaurant industry, and decided to take a leap of faith and pivot into the world of IT, InfoSec, and Cyber Security. I look forward to connecting with you on my new journey.
Experience
My experiences gained from 15 years in the restaurant industry have molded me into the resilient and steadfast individual that I am today. I have garnered communication skills, leadership skills, and critical thinking skills that translate well into any environment. The next chapter in my life is drawing me toward my alternative passion: the world of information technology.
My progress through the cyber security program at UNLV is a great first step towards actualizing this goal and coupled with the extra-curricular activities I do in my free time such as building computers and learning everything I can online, I truly believe I am on the path to becoming a proficient Information Security professional. With the right position at your company, I am confident I can become truly invaluable to your operation.
