Mr. Justin Miners

Justin Miners was first introduced to the benefits of technology when employed by a small business in Immokalee Florida that provided hardware and software solutions to the local farmers. The goal was to monitor items such as soil moisture, dew point, temperatures, and more from their office. It was then he realized how impactful technology is no matter the scope of work. He immediately enrolled in LWTC’s Network Support Service class and has not looked back! In the ten total years of working within IT, he has experience with networking, point of sale, repair, project management, and management in general. It is now where he settled into his passion for educating the next generation of IT technicians to not only help stakeholders with their needs but to do so with an emphasis on soft skills within an enterprise setting.
