Don's Story
Life...
Worked 2-3 jobs consistently in high school and college. Learned many valuable self-taught skills that eventually led to opening and running my own businesses where I was able to develop an extensive IT, Communications, and Administrative skill set and impressive work history. (Check me out on LinkedIn / danthonymartinez)
Aside from 10+ years in Denver I moved to Washington State and have lived in or around Seattle since 1994. Formerly Don Williams, changed my name 40 years ago. Now D Anthony Martinez. Still keep in touch with friends from Carlos Gilbert Elementary in Santa Fe. Some friendships dating back over 55 years.

Owned my own computer consulting company in my second accidental career which was started in the San Juan islands north of Seattle. The most beautiful place I've ever lived. Relocated the business to Point Robert, WA and incorporated in WA state and British Columbia. Ran the business until, what was 1-hr boarder crossing on September 10th 2001 turned into 3-hr crossing on 9/11. Forcing us to relocate the business and go back to Denver for 5 years.
Moved back to Seattle in 2007 and have been here ever since. I have been fortunate to have built a great resume of work and experience in my third accidental career as a SharePoint/Computer/IT consultant at companies including Microsoft, Amazon, Starbucks, REI, AMEX, NFP, as well as non-profits including YWCA Seattle-King-Snohomish and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. And large city and state projects including State of Hawaii Department of Human Resources, and the City of Seattle IT department.
Have met some incredible people personally and professionally along my path. A path I would have NEVER been able to map out. The Universe just kept directing me where to go and when.
Live with the menagerie, One dog "Max", two cats "Caladan" and "Snowball".
I live life in the moment...love to travel and looking for my next final accidental career..
