Sr Systems Engineer - WebSphere, WebSphere Portal and SharePoint administration. Portal application architecture.
Greater Minneapolis-St. Paul Area
I started my career as a developer in PowerBuilder, moved to JAVA and have had my share of .net, PHP, VB, C++, etc through the years.
In 2005 I took a detour and was leading an effort to implement smartphones and ToughBooks within Northwest Airlines for the mechanic strike. I really enjoy mobile technologies, it's a great passion for me.
I moved back to software technologies when I took a position in the NWA middleware team to become a Portal Architect. This role has morphed into overseeing the integration of Portal, ECM and eforms tools at NWA and most recently collaboration.
I am currently working with Delta for our merger efforts on integrating into a single collaboration integrated platform.
JAVA, JSP, HTML, PHP, ASP, VB, C++, SQL server notification services, MS Exchange, WebSphere Application Server, WebSphere Portal, Microsoft SharePoint administration and mobile technology implementation and deployment.
