  Brisbane Infrastructure Group

  (Computer Software industry)

  March 2005 — Present (4 years 5 months)

  I am the founder and current president of the Brisbane Infrastructure Group. Commonly referred to as BIG, we have ~430 members holding regular face to face meetings and a strong online presence.
  
  We meet the first Tuesday of each month at Microsoft in Brisbane and discuss a variety of topics, technologies and methodologies to maximise and manage our Microsoft centric infrastructure.
  
  This is a voluntary unpaid role, and BIG, is a non-profit group and my opportunity to invest back into the technical community.
