Brief Overview:

I have handled the administration of the network and server systems since shortly after starting at Unit Parts. During that time I played an integral part in the design and implementation of the network infrastructure that has allowed Unit Parts to grow from about 20 systems and users on the network in 1994 to over 500 users and PCs on a network spanning 7 facilities with 25 NT Servers and about a dozen UNIX servers. In addition to this I have acted as DBA on every Database Engine we installed during that time. These engines have included Informix, Sybase, and MS SQL Server. In addition to my time at Unit Parts, over the last 7 years, I have been involved in numorous projects in various industries. Some the industries have included: manufacturing, healthcare and financial. Project have varied from the design, development, and installation of a time and attendance system everything from the card swipe devices to the HR applications to maintain 2000+ employees to the network design and impmentation of a financial company network. Specifics about project are available upon request.

As Unit Parts grew, I was promoted to manager of the systems engineering group. In this role, I oversee all areas of System Administration, Network Administration and Help Desk Services. As a part of this, I manage a team in each of these areas, and act as a technical resource for the entire group. This role allows me to manage a growing group of technical people and still work in the newer technologies as the main resource for problem resolution, when issues get beyond the team s skill level. I also act as mentor for issues involving Network Administration, System Administration, Unicenter, etc.

Prior to my promotion to Chief Systems Engineer, I worked directly for Director of IS as a "One man band" handling the responsibilities that are now done by the systems engineering group. This position involved the design and implementation of Unicenter TNG. In addition the position also involved system administration of SCO UNIX and Digital Unix systems; network administration; and designing/developing the show stopper applications. Designed, developed, and implemented Network infrastructure which allowed UPC to move from a one building company to a multi-location company while increasing access speeds and availability of network systems for all users.

Acted as lead for design team in order and inventory system. Worked as a part of a team for development of a complete order creation and inventory management system developed in Powerbuilder and using Informix as the database engine. I developed software in C and Powerbuilder for integration between database programs and carousel system to allow automated spinning and resource allocation.

Designed, developed, and implemented database applications to store and retrieve scientific data. Handled system administration on IBM RS6000 s and SGI Irix machines.
