Hello, Is nice to join this group where good tips, experiences, leads, etc can be shared. I been in IT since 1992 when I got a job with MCI. Yes, at that time worked with Certoff (hope I'm spelling it ok) and he was VP of IT for MCI. As you may know, he was one of the founders of the Internet, specifically related to DARPA TCPIP protocol development. From 1993 I worked with the NT 3.5 Server, and DOS 4.x missed to engage UNIX. Eventually end up working for Bill in 1997 supporting NT 4.0 and Enterprise apps becoming IT consultant for MS products in the enterprise, supported Y2k preps, did the courses for CCNP and end up working with some e-commerce and web applications. After 2001, jumped into heavy duty protocols such ATM, Frame Relay, MPLS, etc. In 2003 moved into management and International business. Since my degree in 2008 I been away from the hands-on work, rather in the business development and management side, currently leading a new venture with new partners developing shopping carts, virtual stores, online payment security features for dynamic websites, etc. So, if you have some interest to share insights, ideas, comments, proposals let me know.

After moving to the United States I used my skills to freelance, mostly graphics design, image processing and recently video. I have continued my education here in North Carolina and have add an Associates Degree in Web Design to my portfolio. It is my desire to find a permanent position working for a corporation that can use my extensive experience in Web and Graphics Design.

Hello everybody,

I am an electronics engineer with an MS in Telco, and since the beginning of my career I have been dealing with technology, telecommunications and systems, and people. For 8 years I have planned, defined, implemented and purchased IT. For the last 8 years I have marketed, consulted and sold IT. What I enjoy the most of my job is understanding the client's needs and influencing, offering and selling the best deal. After being in the hardware area for a while, I have been in the software and systems area for the last 5 years. I actually sell BPM (Business Process Management) and ECM (Enterprise Content management), this is not only a sale but also a consultancy process where I can relate, understand and influence clients.

Hello All,

I am Ricardo Rosa and I focus on server and application consolidation as a VMware professional consultant.
In simple terms: I make a company money by lowering number of servers needed to run the business and more than double the capacity to run applications on remaining infrastructure.

At your service in the New Jersey/New York Metropolitan area as well as international opportunities.
