Instructor
Troy LeMaire

I am currently the IT Security Officer for a regional Ambulance Company in the US. I have spent the last 15+ years with the responsibility of IT Security in my job roles. These roles have been in the healthcare and banking industry. I have been fortunate enough to lead an IT department while opening a green field hospital and lead an IT department for a bank that grew 300% in 5 years through acquisition.

I earned my MBA from Tulane, I also have my Bachelors in Management, and received my Associates degree in Pharmacy Technology from the US Air Force. I spent 5 years in the Air Force and was a Pharmacy Technician. While in the Air Force I was stationed at Nellis Air Force Base and the US Air Force Academy

In addition to teaching and being an IT Security Officer, I enjoy live music as well as duck hunting and traveling. Spending time with my family and all of the adventures that involves, have been opportunities to make great memories.
