Michael C. (Chris) Norman chris1968@gmail.com’s Summary
As a kid, I started programming on a TRS-80 Model I and haven't looked back since.
Ideas are a dime a dozen, its implementing them that matters.
Ultimately, I'm a technologist. I consider myself a forward thinker and thrive in an environment with other visionaries.
I have broad IT experience and have forgotten more than I know, but pride myself on my ability to quickly grasp technology and the challenges it presents.
IT, for everything else it is and isn’t, is about people and productivity. This includes users and IT professionals alike.
