Travis Wichert's Summary

I'm a fun and innovative geek who loves the interdisciplinary challenges the information technology field provides. I've been in the these trenches for about two decades, so I've gained some perspective of the long-view on managing technology, growth, and -- most importantly -- change.

Most of my professional experience is in systems engineering, systems administration, project management, and networking. My favorite projects creatively push the limits of existing technologies in a way that somewhat resembles invention, but built from proven building blocks. My current favorite example is my recent work creating a Windows and Linux "emulsion" from which Windows cloud servers are born.
Specialties

I am OS agnostic and am most fluent in BSD, Linux, and MS Windows. I have deployed many WLANs and dealt with local and wide-area networks at all OSI layers. I find enjoyment in project management and risk assessments. I aim to be as plug-and-play as possible,
