Who am I
I'm a SharePoint Architect who has been around the block, I've been working with SharePoint prior to the release of SharePoint Portal Server 2001. I'm a geek; I love what I do and I’m very successful in my field. I recently published my 1st book and am working on my second book with Sybex.
Community
I’ve made some amazing friends being involved in the SharePoint community. In 06.09 I ran SharePoint Saturday Chicago, in 11.09 I ran The SharePoint 2010 Road Show. I’m planning 2 SharePoint Saturday Chicago events in 2010 as well as another SharePoint Road Show. I can’t begin to tell you how much I get out of pulling events like these together. These events help people learn and grow and for the speakers; we make lifelong friendships.
