Hello! My name is Ryan Desmond.
In the early days, I was the kid who took everything apart. I also was the kid that meticulously took the time to put everything back together. As I got older, I started building and repairing computers. Before the internet was commonplace, I setup and ran a bulletin board system giving locals the ability to post messages, chat, and share files with one another.
While taking college courses, I found myself recording voice overs and designing interactive online tutorials of consumer products for companies like Sony and Kodak. Building websites became the norm.
Time marched on, and eventually, I found my niche in the legal community where I could apply my technical skills. After working at several law firms, I knew there were greater challenges to be had, and I wanted to do IT on a larger scale.
I joined the Ninth Judicial Circuit Court of Florida in April of 2013. I am currently a Senior IT Systems Analyst. My years spent working IT in the legal industry has proven to be an incredible and worthwhile experience. I thoroughly enjoy my work.
I am a seasoned information technology professional with 20+ years of proven industry experience. I possess the knowledge, skills, and ability to manage all aspects of IT while ensuring employees accomplish professional growth and organizations achieve long-term success.
Our common bond as humans should be to help one another succeed. #AllOfWe
