For over 20 years I have worked professionally in an administrative role with a wide variety of different server and network technologies in a diverse range of business settings. Often finding myself in a role of a technical Swiss army knife, I have found a certain level of zen with picking up new technologies and gaining productive proficiency within a short period of time. I have come to crave the challenge and love bringing to life a new technology no matter how poor version 0.x of the documentation happens to be.
