Ever wondered what it takes to break into the cloud computing industry, especially if you're coming from a non-technical background? You're about to find out. We sat down with Broadus Palmer, a modern-day maverick who transitioned from the banking industry to cloud computing - and did it with style. Broadus' journey is not your typical tech transition story. A man of diverse talents, he combined his backgrounds in music, clothing design, and banking to create a unique personal brand that stands out in the tech world.
During our enlightening conversation, Broadus shared the hurdles he faced while navigating the tech industry. Coming from a rural part of Virginia with limited exposure to technology, his story is a testament to the power of initiative, hard work, and determination. He discussed how he balanced work and family life during this challenging transition and how his attitude and networking skills played a crucial role in his success. Broadus also lifted the curtain on his innovative program, Level Up in Tech, which has propelled hundreds towards their goals of having careers in the cloud.
But we didn't just talk about tech. We explored the importance of authenticity in storytelling, the consequences of making money faster than your friends, and why it's vital to surround yourself with those who believe in your goals. From discussing Broadus's top five rappers and their influence on his journey, to understanding the variables that can affect one's progress in tech bootcamps and online learning, this episode offers a unique blend of insights. Tune in to hear Broadus' inspiring journey and gain useful tips on transitioning into the tech industry. #cloudcomputing #tech #money

Broadus is the real deal. My students have taken his training platform. Great interview.
Yes his bro!
Thanks for tuning in as always!
If @kevtechitsupport says it’s good it must be great!! Hey Kev 👋🏽
$40+ an hour for first tech role as a Technical AWS Support? Dude must’ve loved you. I’m seeing $20 - $28 off the top
It’s based off role,skills, and industry
@@TechTualChatter Been tuned into your platform for a minute, kind of have to “sell” yourself during the job hunt too
@@kingcap9928 very true
Inspirational 👏🏿
Top tier definitely shared this with the homies
Appreciate you ❤️❤️
Haha start my first cloud course this week so this came right on time 🙌🏾
Perfect!!
Great insight yet gain on this interview as well . This Channel is amazing bro keep it up

Man y’all dropped some gems! I really appreciate the knowledge.
Thanks man
Another amazing interview, and a humble experience because my road was similar. Love it!
💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
❤❤❤ This interview was evrything I needed! I was getting discouraged in my journey until now. Thank you for your content and motivation.
Thanks for watching!
What’s one thing you took away from this convo that you think can help you in your journey??
That my man Brodus. I have been following him for over 4 years.
💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
Should we give the people a part 2
Great video :) Keep up your hard work
Thank you ❤️
Another banger 💥 Great interview!
🤲🏽🤲🏽🤲🏽🤲🏽💪🏽💪🏽
Man, his story was great. I'm so happy for him! Hope he's doing well.
Yeah he’s been killing it!
Great video gang
💪🏽💪🏽
I enjoyed this interview!!!! I really appreciate it! I’m an QA Engineer and looking to switch to the “CLOUD”
Appreciate it.
What was a major takeaway you took from this?
Mann I know I’m late to this podcast video but this was definitely worth listening to at my current job because it’s very motivating for me to start a career in tech not knowing where to start with all these options 🙏🏾
Glad we were able to help you out!
Great interview 🎉.
Appreciate it ❤️❤️
Interesting narratives
Cloud is the way to go!
Facts
That story about the lady’s bank account is wild.
😅😅😅tell me about it
Durk and j cole and mobeybagg and 42 dugg🔥🔥🔥 You got good taste unc 🔥🔥
Yea facts $25/hr ain’t no money no more. I gotta get into Tech💯🔥💰
Tired of this manufacturing environments
Schedule a call with his company and see what they can do for you
@@TechTualChatter ok sounds good. I also just left active duty military last year so I would like to capitalize with my secret clearance if I can. But I would like to get into Cloud ☁️
1. This interview is fire!
2. I’m currently a security analyst in the GRC space but looking to become more technical in the cloud space. I have my sec+ and AWS practitioner but need to find labs to practice for couple hours per day any advice?
Network and projects the best advice I have got for you
Similar origin stories. I'm also a musician (I believe I'm pretty talented too) but I still have yet to figure out the business side of it (consistently at least). I turned to tech to supplement my income but now after about 3 years, I'm a network engineer and it's paying 6 figures+. Im still on my music grind but the tech side is extremely helpful. This video is hella inspirational.
💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
Did rap sing or play an instrument? I used to be a drummer at my homechurch
@@TechTualChatter I play guitar bro! And drums is dope bro thats such as important instrument. Especially in church. I've been playing for 16 years. Got a whole bunch of content and I've played all over the country. The pandemic made everything hard but I'mma keep at it.
@@edwardv4546 🔥🔥🔥
Yeah me and my cousins grew up playing together. Now one of em has his own band that he does gigs with
How did you become a network engineer?
@@FloridaInvestor I got my CCNA and kinda got lucky stumbling upon a Network Engineering role with Cook County. But the CCNA, network projects, and right timing help tremendously. I do have an engineering degree from college also.
I enjoy this
Thanks I appreciate it
Yo also, I happen to notice your name and something that we don't think about or talk about much is the power of a great name...We have to think about what and how we are naming our kids and how it will impact them in their futures
I Agree to an extent but I don’t judge people based on their name.
LevelUP!! That his HIM!
Is!

Landed my first job in cyber as a SOC analyst. I have Net+ and Sec+. I plan on transitioning to a Security Engineering or a Tier 2 Soc or Threat Analyst. My networking skills are somewhat shaky, should i restudy Net+ or get CCNA?
Not necessarily
Are these infomercials?
W video 🐐
Appreciate you my dude
Wild question but is there anyway being a supervisor for TSA be a slight help or at least a good look on my resume when trying to get into IT
Not a wild question at all. I used to support the tsa network on the helpdesk. It’s a lot of compliance stuff y’all have to do at work. I’d suggest possibly looking on GRC
@@TechTualChatter appreciate it 🤞🏾
This came right on Time. I just passed my Az-104 the main reason why I became interested in cloud is because of Sneakerbots 😂
CONGRATULATIONS!!
Thanks I appreciate it
That’s crazy haha
Big congrats on that! What do you plan on doing with that?
@@edwardv4546 I’m trying to land a cloud role , I’m going get with HD for some coaching, learn terraform, go to WGU to finish up my bachelors and also network with my people in spaces like this.
Ima need to hear about that nurse's story that made 6 figures for her first job 😂
He posted about it on his LinkedIn
@@TechTualChatter thank you!
@@Tamara_YT Yw!!
its not like banking wouldnt have made you money either. theres even more money in business and higher up finance positions.
Politics to making a lot in banking
🙏🏿😤💪🏾🫡
