Brent Whitaker

Professional Services Technician T2

Meet Brent—a guy who’s worn more hats than a costume shop and somehow makes them all look easy.

He kicked things off in 2005 by joining the Air Force, where he spent five years juggling Air Traffic Control and Contract Administration (because apparently, doing one high-stress job wasn’t enough!). After his service, Brent landed in South Dakota and stepped into the world of tech as an IT Administrator for a local print shop.

From there, his journey was a whirlwind of full-time work, part-time gigs, stay-at-home dad duties, and night classes—all at once. And through it all, he powered through and earned his Cyber Operations degree from Dakota State University in 2024. Talk about commitment!

Brent’s a proud husband and dad of three—one daughter, two sons, and one energetic dog who keeps him on his toes. When he’s not solving client tech problems, he’s diving into family game nights, devouring books, or wrestling with the dog like it's a WWE match. He’s also rebuilding a home computer lab just for fun—where he and his middle son are currently venturing into the wild world of robotics (cue sci-fi soundtrack).

Brent joined LinkTech in late 2024 and has been thriving ever since, blending brains, heart, and a bit of chaos in the best way possible.
