Charlee Thompson

I grew up in Three Rivers on the Suwannee side and loved playing at any river I could get to as a child. I went to Branford High School and graduated in 1993. I have worked dairy farms, tobacco fields, and even had a job tying tubes to cars. I’m a member of CMA (Christian Motorcyclist Association) the Moose Lodge and a very proud member of the TREPO Community.

I’ve been working in the IT field for the last 20 years and have done all kinds of fun things with computers. I coached a team of IT techs for over 6 years when I left to be the IT Operations Analyst for HAECO Americas for almost 10 years. After that I traveled around Florida fixing computers and servers for a Managed Services Provider, but the road was not the right place for me. Now I work for local government and do IT work for 5 Firehouses, Parks & Rec, County Administration, Building & Zoning, 911 Addressing, Economic Development, and the Road Department.

The coolest thing about me is that I’m a dad and a grandpa. Nothing is better than a 3 year old saying “I love you Grandpa” it’s music to my ears.
