Hello Everyone and Welcome
My name is David Hicks, and I am the creator of davidlhicks.com.
Who Am I?
I work as an Information Technology and Security Manager by day, and I genuinely enjoy what I do. In my profession, I assess the compliance of various systems—such as business, accounting, marketing, and human resource applications—against internal and external rules and regulations (government and regulatory organizations). My role also requires me to help improve the organization’s security posture.
I have a strong background in Information Technology, Security, and a degree in Technical Writing. Over the past few years, I have gained a passion for content marketing, digital marketing, self-improvement, productivity, and blogging. To create this blog, I have conducted extensive research in these areas to help those who wish to learn and grow. I love to learn and apply the knowledge I’ve gained through my 12+ years of experience in the technology field to assist myself and others. My hope is that through this blog, you will find valuable insights and inspiration.
The Goal of the Blog
The overall goal of this blog is to support individuals with their aspirations, whether they focus on self-improvement, productivity, enhancing writing skills, content and digital marketing skills, or leveraging various forms of software and technology to do so.
The software, tools, strategies, and insights recommended here have either been personally used or in many cases extensively researched. I hope you find many helpful as you apply them to your life, goals or business. Thank you for taking the time to read this. I hope whatever your goals may be, this blog can assist you on your journey toward growth and success.
Learn, build, grow and have fun!
Sincerely,
David L. Hicks, CISA
