About Me

I have over seventeen years of hands-on, technical and team-lead managerial experience. I have been a part of several role-based aspects of the IT industry from everything as a business analyst, database administrator, virtualization architect, systems and applications engineer to that of a project manager and chief enterprise architect.

Within the Drupal.org community, I have been usually present in the High-Performance and MySQL groups as these relate to back-end LAMP needs more than the actual PHP programming aspects of Drupal. Also, I have been in the past an active participant for the Drupal.org redesign implementers as a System Administrator and on the Drupal PIFR project as well, volunteering my personal vSphere server farm for additional testing needs for RHEL/CentOS platforms.

As for my actual professional work aspects, when I was with Morris DigitalWorks, I was their Sr System Engineer & IT Architect and actually designed and integrated the infrastructure that now known as the Morris SMS platform (solution consists of PressFlow 6, multi-memcached instances, integrated authcache/memcache patch, reverse squid proxies) which they are actively using today for a number of their on-going projects:

CJOnline.com Capital-Journal newspaper (Topeka, KS, USA)
Florida Times-Union | Jacksonville.com (Jacksonville, FL, USA)
SavannahNow [Savannah Morning News] (Savannah, GA, USA)
Bluffton Today (Bluffton, SC, USA)
MyClaySun, MyNassauSun, MyMandarinSun, MyStJohnsSun [Florida Times-Union] (Jacksonville, FL, USA)
Morris Communications: KBRJ - FM | KEAG - FM | KFQD - AM | KHAR - AM | KMXS - FM | KWHL - FM (Anchorage, AK, USA)

In fact, one of my co-workers and I did a presentation for DrupalCamp Atlanta (even though I couldn't attend on the day)...
