Thanks for checking in!
I am Colin Cecil, an IT professional with 30+ years of experience. Grew up in England but have been living in the New Jersey for over 25 years. I’ve worked for Merck & Co. in the IT division since moving to New Jersey and have supported many different business functions over the years.
