Our IT Radix Team Members Get Outdoors!

Rob came to IT Radix with over 20 years of experience working in the IT field. He kicked off his career in the U.S. Air Force where he specialized in Communications Computer Systems Control. His military experience cemented his love for technology and launched him into an IT career path.

Learning a new language is one of the top 15 hobbies to master during the coronavirus pandemic. What better way to escape the doldrums than to immerse yourself into learning about another country, its culture, and its language!

Discussing technology can be like speaking another language.
