Hello world!

First entry, probably need to tell about my self.

I’m a geek and IT professional. Worked for different companies, including Fortune 100 corporate and startups in different stages. Started as VAX/VMS operator working shifts. Developed my career up to beeing VP of IT, managing people, technology and budget.  A year ago I decided to check the option of beeing individual contributor and became Systems Architect.  From time to time a have a privilege to help other IT organizations as a freelance consultant.

I’m very hands on and will probably write about the things I’m working on but I’m also interested in how IT is integrated in the business and helps the business to achieve the goals (my corporate roots are deep).  There are many people who write abut technical stuff but almost none who write as IT middle management and the challenges these managers are facing.
