Information Technology Consultant
I'm a senior level Software Architect and Developer, Security/Network/Systems Administrator with over 15 years experience. I'm interested in helping others with their technology related projects, from large corporations to small businesses.
I like to help small businesses with their Internet related issues like Internet connectivity, email, and web site development. I'm also glad to help them with their security related issues such as virus protection and backup plans.
For larger corporations, I'm available as an extra technical resource for many different areas. I have a varied background, so I'm familiar with many different technologies. I am also able to learn technologies specific to many situations in a relatively short time.
Technologies:
I've used and managed many different combinations of technologies to maintain or create technical solutions. I am most familiar with the Microsoft stack of technologies (Windows Servers, Internet Information Server, SQL Server, ASP.NET). I'm also familiar with different Linux distributions such as Ubuntu and SUSE and many of the server applications that are available on those distributions.
