Senior Program Manager at Microsoft
Greater Seattle Area
Chief Evangelist - Novell Systems and Resource Management. Desktop, Server and Handheld management. Data Center Management.
Director of Product Management, Product Manager and Product Evangelist.
I am ITIL v2 and v3 Foundation Level certified and I hold the ISEB Managers Certificate in IT Service Management.
Experience with partner integration, acquisition work, integration of M&A targets into a broad technology portfolio.
Of particular interest are the changing requirements and expectations of enterprise customers and how systems management and security management are converging.
I am spending more and more time talking about IT Service Management; in particular how Novell solutions map to the IT Infrastructure Library.
I have a very 'hands on' and technical approach - and am able to rapidly absorb new technologies and concepts and re-present them to different audiences.
In my role as product evangelist I have been in many customer facing situations - from keynote presentations at Novell BrainShare, through smaller events such as LinuxWorld Expo to customer events and workshops.
I believe in the use of non-traditional methods to reach my audience - blogging, podcasts and rich community driven content via wiki - and use each within my current roles.
I am the community lead for the Novell Technology Community blog - Novell Cool Blogs: http://www.novell.com/coolblogs
