I am a network architect by day, digital media content generator by night. I co-host Packet Pushers with Greg Ferro; we make lovely podcasts about the data networking industry together. I feed beasts like Network Computing and other fine online publications with blogs and reports I write. Sometimes I speak about networking in hotel ballrooms to tired networking people siloed into near uselessness by bad management.

In 2008, I earned the right to have “CCIE #20655″ tattooed on my back. Now that my psychiatrist says I’m okay to interact with people again, I’m starting on the CCDE program…which I suspect will require I go back on meds.
