Am I an IT Professional?

Of course I am, Why?

First I took up a Degree in Computer Science, even though not all in my family is enthusiastic about it.

Second, I had worked in a few IT related companies, like the digoswifi internet service provider as a Software Administrator, in the Nakayama Tecnology Corporation as Graphics Designer and now in the University of Mindanao as a Network Administrator and Computer Lab In Charge.

Third, I do a little programming, in fact i just recently found the love for open source applications. In fact, im planning to migrate our internet laboratory to linux, so I could bring the spirit of the open source movement closer to the students.

Fourth, I took up a masters degree in Information Technology. In fact, the very reason that i left the companies above is because i need a work where I could also go to school and finished a graduate study and I found out that the best way is to work in an academic institution.

Fifth, I just the love the IT profession, hands down.

So, I guess the reasons above is more than enough to justify me being called an IT Professional...
