Hi Sonia,



I'd be both interested in volunteering and also getting my Certified System Administrator.   That is really a great service you are providing to vets.



Please consider attending the KM-SIG.   We can talk and figure out what make sense and what can be done to drive awareness and build local interest in this group



Kindest Regards,


-Daniel Quinones

Thank you Daniel for the reply.   I appreciate the interest and enthusiasm.   I will do my best to be there tomorrow, though given that i'm preparing for my next class to start in a week and a half, I may not be able to.   Are you a veteran?   Or do you know someone that is?   What type of volunteering would you be interested in doing?   I can get you more information once I understand your position better.

I need to get you in contact with our Veterans Resource Center here at the University of Texas at Tyler.   This might be something that they can offer to our Veterans here.

This is great to see that NPower is doing great things across the globe. I am an alumni from class 1 San Mateo California and I have to say that great things have come from all the efforts put forth from all NPower alumni and staff. I currently work for the top rated ServiceNow partner Linium LLC, and I never thought I would be here today years ago, when my future goals were more hands on IT driven. But I eat, live, breath ServiceNow Currently and I can see it as a major part of my future development. I am now based in North Texas filling a majority of my days bringing the requests of my clients to life using my ServiceNow Kung-fu and my best practice disciplines. There is always opportunities here at Linium for the right Veteran. Feel free to reach out to me. Timothy.Sears@Linium.com
