This week we're talking with Altansukh about his role in moving almost the entire Mongolian Government over to Joomla websites.

1) Welcome. Could you tell us a little bit about yourself?

Hi, thanks for the letting me to share our experiences with the community. I'm 33 and living in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia. I have a banking degree, but I was so much into computers since my childhood so I ended up working in IT when I finished my university. Mostly worked as webmaster and web designer in early years of my career and then since 2003 I am working as IT Specialist at the USAID-funded project here in Mongolia. Enriched my experience with Cisco and Microsoft certification as I managed Cisco network and Windows 2003 server systems.

The main reason I work in IT is it constantly evolves and there is always something new. Almost every year there is something new to discover, learn and master. And it makes IT fairly challenging to work.
