My dad had a stroke on June 11th and i had to fly down from Oregon to orange county California to take care of him. As a result i lost my job and I need a source of income to pay my bills and support my wife back at home in Oregon. I will be away from home indefinitely until my dad recovers enough to not need supervision for self-care. Unfortunately my passed away on September 8th and now my fundraising mission is covering his funeral expenses. To give some more background information I've lived with a disability most of my life and I have had a rough time finding good paying job and and consequently have struggled financially throughout my life despite having a graduate degree. As a result I have recently decided to enter the field of network security taking my first step by aquiring my CompTIA security+ along with my A+and network+giving me the title of secure infrastructure specialist, but I unfortunately don't have any experience in the field and it will take a while to get things going. Hopefully with the support on here I will accomplish my career goals.
