    Greetings All,
    
    I am anticipating a move to the Metro Denver area, and I would like to
    secure a job before I move out there from Chicago.
    
    I have 2 1/2 years of experience in network security, and
    6 years of experience with computer networks and network protocols.  I have
    been working with security products from multiple vendors, namely
    Checkpoint, Cisco and Axent doing firewall and VPN installations,
    vulnerability assessments, security audits and security policy development.
    
    I have been doing consulting for 3 years, and am open to a job doing either
    consulting services, or
    as a staff security engineer.
    
    I am skilled in network infrastructure, but my career goals lie in the
    network security arena.  I am constantly striving to develop myself
    professionally by attending security training, technical conferences, and
    doing
    research.
    
    Included is my resume.  Please contact me via email - markat_private if you
    would wish to speak further.  Thank you.
    
    Sincerely,
    
    Mark Degner
