Hey There! I’m Janice

Engr2tch.com is one of my 1st projects after deciding to study for the Cybersecurity +Certification. It was inspired by two major book end events in my life ,15 years of Engineering experience and 10 years as a STEM Paraprofessional. Nestled in between these two major book ends of my life, I was able to raise two amazing young adults. I just recently became the grandmother (G-Mommy) to the most beautiful human I’ve ever seen . I’m excited about the direction my life is now taking. For quite some time, I’ve been interested in data security and privacy. This was due to an unfortunate event that occurred in my life about 20 years ago. So when a dear friend shared that she was studying for her “Cybersecurity Certification, it peaked my interest and my new journey began
