About: I have experience in project and product management in companies ranging from small (SoftQuad Software) to large (Sun Microsystems), and products ranging from consumer to enterprise, with components ranging from hardware through software to the cloud. My pragmatic project management methods work while encouraging all team members to be part of the team.
Technology background: identity/privacy/security, XML, publishing, HTML and related web standards

What are you looking for? I'm interested in helping companies with product management and project management in software and web applications. I can help you get those things done that need to be done, and figure out what doesn't need to be done now (or, maybe, at all).
