These are notes, rants and comments from a 15 year IT veteran in the Research Triangle Park of North Carolina.  I have a beautiful wife and three boys: Connor, Logan and Baby Zach.  I always said I would never have the mini van now sitting in the driveway.

I am currently involved with the following technology initiatives and projects originating in RTP, expanding globally:

• Electronic Document Interchange (EDI) partnership development
• EDI document translator configuration and administration (Gentran, Lexicom)
• Electronic order processing into various ERP and SaaS systems
• Wide and Local Area enterprise network communication
• Firewalls, port management and network gateway security configurations
• Remote application deployment and configuration (ICA, VPNs)
• Enterprise SQL database deployment, maintenance and administration
• Business Intelligence systems deployment and report development (Business Objects, Qlikview)
• SANs and virtualization (NetApp, VMWare ESX)
