Prior Navy Officer considering IT in Navy Reserve

Background: I was commissioned in 2012 and resigned in 2017. Honorably discharged in 2017 as an O-3 Lieutenant. Mostly was involved in the Staff Corps of the Navy.

In parallel, I was also working in IT on the civilian side (and still do to this day). I have been working in IT project management for several years. I am an IT manager right now overseeing a team of development and operations engineers.

I am considering applying to be a reservist and continue doing IT work but in the Navy Reserve.

Have both bachelor's and master's degrees (both of which are not in technology).

I hold various project management credentials and currently have Public Trust clearance for my company that has a federal contract within the healthcare space. I could easily get Secret but we never needed it for our data classification.

Thoughts? Would love your honest feedback.
