My Fellow Steemians - I feel like I am late to the party but here I am!

My name is Taharka Beamon and I am a Cybersecurity Analyst from New York.

I currently work for the world's largest tradeshow organizer as an IT Security Analyst but long before that (2009), I graduated with a Finance degree from Drexel University in Philadelphia, PA and became a Series 6 certified Financial Advisor. That venture was short-lived but I am thankful every day that my discontent for selling insurance led me to pursuing a career in Desktop / Network Support. In that role, I grew an affinity for Information Security and have not looked back since.

I have 12+ different IT certifications from Microsoft, Apple, CompTIA, VMWare and others and I will post about passing these exams. Within the last year I have discovered Cryptocurrencies. I find it to be the perfect blend of my interest in Finance and Technology. I have invested in, at one time or another, Bitcoin, Litecoin, Ripple, Digibyte and Verge so I will post about those experiences as well. Lastly, I have tech-focused content from my Instagram account and my YouTube Channel that I will post here as well so the Steem Community can see it.

Stay tuned for: Cybersecurity, Programming, IT Certifications, Robotics, Automation, Raspberry Pi, Apps, Software and more.

Note: None of my statements in this or subsequent posts are meant to be financial advice.
