@danieldibswe Well deserved my brother 🙏🏼💕

Some good news. I have been promoted to Senior Architect at Conscia, the most senior individual contributor role we have in tech. I'll be doing much the same as now but spend even more time in mentoring colleagues and working on things that will benefit the entire company.

If anyone here looks up to me and what I have achieved in my career, you should know that I completely rebooted my personal & professional life at 33 and started from zero. I had nothing. First tech job was pulling wires on a telco central office frame for $10/hr. Never give up!!

@LearningatCisco Getting ready to go live with the first of the series.

Don't wait until you're put on the spot to get savvy in SD-WAN. 😬 Join us on January 17, at 2 p.m. PT for a free webinar on #Cisco SD-WAN. Start with the basic concepts, then see the solution come to life in a case study. Register now: cs.co/60193TfWD #SDWAN #CiscoCert

True commitment to work-life balance is giving people permission to take other priorities as seriously as their jobs. In burnout cultures, people are expected to drop everything for work. In healthy cultures, people are encouraged to protect time for family, health, and leisure.

@danieldibswe @Peter_Paluch Love it! Each Cisco Certified Expert certification uncovered what I perceived to be weaknesses and led me to the next. I can also admit, it wasn’t until I began mentoring others as part of the askaCCIE community movement when learning took on a new meaning. #LearnShareGrow

One of the best explanations I've ever seen to what it means to become #CCIE certified (or other expert level certs) from the maestro and my brother @Peter_Paluch Life long learning. Sending the ladder back down. Things that matter a lot to me personally.
