About Me

Hi! My name is Dawson Pickford, and I currently live in St Petersburg, FL. I'm originally from North Myrtle Beach, SC. I work in IT for a company called KnowBe4. I love staying up to date with all things tech, watching college football, and playing a round of golf when I get the chance. I played golf all four years in high school and was team captain my senior year!

My Professional Journey

In 2022, I graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Information Technology with a minor in communication from Coastal Carolina University. My professional career began working for an MSP on the IT helpdesk. I now work in advanced technical product support for KnowBe4!
