And , despite the fact he was laid off three times during the dot com crash of the early 2000s , Streelman feels he has been “ really fortunate to have gotten a wide range of exposures to different environments , industries , and technologies ”.
Streelman adds : “ I have always been a technologist . I got my first computer for Christmas in 1990 , and by January I had it taken apart and put back together again , which gave me a passion for tinkering and building PCs . Here I am 20 + years later .”
