VisualCV

I'm currently the Vice President of Product Development here at VisualCV.com. I'm also a member of the Executive Management Team.  Being at a Web 2.0 startup, I get the chance to be deeply involved in all kinds of activities.  I'm focused on Product Management, Software Development, and Quality Assurance.  But at any given moment I'm also supporting Business Development, Consumer Research, Community Outreach & Evangelism, Marketing, Customer Service, Production Operations, and Strategic Planning - depending on what time of day (or night) it is. What a cool job!

Before joining Phillip Merrick and Clint Heiden at VisualCV.com in 2007, I was the Chief Information Officer (CIO) for webMethods. I was with webMethods for many years - from one of the most successful software IPOs in history in 2000, through years of explosive hypergrowth fueled by several acquisitions, to the successful sale of webMethods to Software AG in 2007. What a ride. During that time I was the Director of Knowledge Management, the VP of Enterprise Applications, and eventually Senior Vice President and CIO.

Before joining webMethods in 2000, I had spent most of my career designing, developing, and deploying Knowledge Management, Imagery, and Geographic Information Systems (GIS) for the U. S. Intelligence Community.

Genealogy:

In the past few years, I've really gotten into genealogy.  I especially like bringing my love of geography, regional history, internet research, and (of course) technology to bear on tough research problems. And then going into the field to validate - yes, I lurk in graveyards and ghost towns.  Ask me about my grandfathers that fought within a few hundred yards of each other at Vicksburg during the Civil War - on opposite sides.
