BRIAN MELARA
MTS I - Mainframe Storage

Company—
Verizon

Years in IT—
6

My first mainframe job—
Tape Operator

My favorite mainframe memory—
My first SHARE in Pittsburgh, and finally realizing that there was a big mainframe world outside of my own company. Sometimes you get so wrapped up in learning about your shop (especially as a Junior team member) you forget there is a huge user community out there.
