I'm a computer professional since 1992 with experience in a wide range of disciplines. My underlying motivation is helping developers and IT professionals understand and effectively use software with a minimum of effort. My transferable skills and strengths include- Holistic thinking. Being able to take the big pictures and the details into account at the same time.- Writing and communication through varied mediums.- Teaching and instruction - whether face-to-face or through content delivery.- Ability to learn complex concepts and boil them down into understandable analogies and explanations - Easily able to change language and approach based on the audience. - Able to bridge the gap between widely different people styles - Can lead or follow and can sense when to switch roles. I can work as in individual or part of a team. I prefer healthy team environments. I can be the "lone gunslinger" if needed for short periods of time to bootstrap projects, but I'll quickly want to create mutually supportive positive relationships.In general, I enjoy helping people in any way that I can through technology. Measuring results again direct feedback from my audience is important and rewarding to me. I also have interest in teaching and communicating through varied mediums. As such, I have an interest in UI Design, visual representation, and music and how to use them effectively to convey thought or emotion when working to accomplish a particular goal.I can fill a Program Manager, System Design, Teacher / Instructor, Instructional Design or Technical Writing role. I'm fascinated with UI Design, User Experience and Interaction Design as well.In music / video - I've been recording, songwriting and playing in bands since 1984. I'm a multi-instrumentalist.
