Bio
Ralph Serra
Raul has a true passion for technology. He is enthusiastic about the work he does and always has useful insight. Raul is a key member of our engineering group and is a go-to for all matters VDI. I was impressed right away when I met Raul as I have never met anyone who loves what they do as much as he does.

I was the Lead Technician on the LAN team with Raul at CUNY - Baruch College. He was one of our best resources and the go-to-guy for many of the network related issues that came across my desk. I found him to be ambitious and knowledgeable. Always willing to learn a new skill-set or take on an unfamiliar challenge. He has strong technical skills that are complemented by his ability to organize and prioritize projects. He was an important contributor to the team and organization, and I would readily recommend him to any company looking to enhance their technical response team.
