David Staples

I've been working in the IT field for over 25 years in a variety of roles. I started off building computers in the 1990's as a teenager and then started doing technical support for dial-up ISPs while I was in high school. I've been a web developer, project manager, and solutions architect for large national and global companies. After getting burnt out in the corporate world, I was offered a gig teaching part time and loved it so much that I decided to make it my full time job.  I love teaching complex topics and seeing the light bulb turn on in students minds as they begin to grasp how these things work and why we do what we do. If you're looking to advance your IT career, I'd love to help you! I currently hold over 25 certifications including Microsoft Certified Trainer (MCT); CompTIA Technical Trainer (CTT+); ISC2 CISSP; AWS Cloud Practitioner, AWS Solutions Architect Associate, AWS Developer Associate, AWS SysOps Administrator Associate, AWS Architect Professional, AWS DevOps Engineer Professional, AWS Machine Learning Specialty; Microsoft Azure AZ-900, AZ-104, AZ-204, MS-SQL MCSA, etc.; CompTIA A+, Network+, Security+, CySA+, CASP+, Linux+, Project+, Cloud+, etc.; Project Management Professional (PMP); ITIL Foundations and Practitioner; and some more alphabet soup.

I've taught many classes for the US Department of Defense including the US Army, US Air Force, US Coast Guard, US Marines, and US Navy. I've also taught for a variety of private sector companies as well including:

- AT&T

- Bell Canada

- Boeing

- Delta Airlines

- Fidelity Investments

- JP Morgan Chase Bank

- Rivian Automotive

- Sony Corporation

- Southwest Airlines

- Verizon

- and many many more.

Some of the things I do aren't even listed here, but feel free to find me on LinkedIn if you'd like to learn more about me.

How can I help you pass your exam?
