A Change in Direction

I'm excited to announce that I've accepted a new position with Marco Inc in St Cloud, MN.  An opportunity presented itself within the Internal Systems group, and after much prayer and consideration I have accepted the role of IS Systems Administrator.

I'm pumped to begin working with this team of extremely gifted engineers to design, implement and maintain the data and voice systems in use at Marco.  It very much affords me the opportunity to continue working to expand my skill set in regard to the data center, with focus on Cisco UCS, EMC storage and backup, and Cisco infrastructure.  I will also be expanding into the realm of disaster recovery and business continuity as I work with this team to support and grow Marco's infrastructure as the company rapidly grows.

It's bittersweet to be leaving the Field Service team, however.  I'm blessed to have worked alongside this group of the finest engineers I've had the pleasure to know in my years of IT.  I'm proud of the work we've accomplished and excited to see what challenges and opportunities we share as we move forward.

So my direction change is not all that divergent, but rather more of a veering in the same general direction of data center technologies and systems.  I really am excited to dive in, and will be posting more here as time and inspiration afford.
