Hello - Long Time Lurker, First Time Poster

Long time lurker, but I finally decided to post. I have learned quite a bit just lurking on this site regarding a possible MSF or MBA (I'm sure I'll be one of those that asks for guidance in the near future) and I look forward to learning more. I currently reside in the BO (back office) and am currently exploring my options to escape it. I hope to share my BO experiences with the forum.

Thanks for the sounding board!
