April 18, 2022

Welcome back to our Team Highlight! Today, meet Antonio from Integris’ Maryland office.

Could you describe your role/what you do in 2-3 sentences?
I am a Cybersecurity Technician. I help my team safeguard information system assets by identifying and solving potential and actual security problems. My team and I upgrade systems by implementing and maintaining security controls.

How did you become interested in your profession as a career?
When I was 18 years old my roommate was working in IT and he taught me a few basic things and I found it really interesting. I started playing around with machines and decided I wanted to go to school to become an IT Professional. It took me a few years because I worked for a sales company and I was 26 when I started to go back to school to start my IT journey.

What’s your favorite part of your job?
Being able to look into an issue and fix a problem for the clients and be able to work with the teams.

Outside of work, what do you enjoy doing? What are some of your hobbies?
Playing basketball and spending time with my kids.

Your favorite movie?
My favorite movie is AVATAR. I love the Marvel movies but I have to say AVATAR is still one of my favorite movies.

What are some things you love about the place you currently live?
I love our neighborhood and our yard, where my kids and dog play.

Are you an early bird or a night owl?
I am an early bird.

Where do you see yourself 10 years from now?
I would like to be in an executive position and be able to see my kids go to college.

What’s the best advice you’ve ever received?
Don’t be an idiot!

If you could have a superpower, what would you want and why?
I would want to be able to have hyperspeed because then I can do so much at once, like clean my kid’s room without having to breathe in.
