About

I’m a former Forrester Analyst who focused on helping my clients solve immediate business problems related to information management, knowledge management, and collaboration by applying the right mix of technology and culture changes to their organizations.

As an analyst, I gained exposure to many of the market players in the Enterprise 2.0 space as well as a wide variety of business concerns and needs.  Prior to my work as an industry analyst, I worked at Fidelity Investments for almost 15 years.  During my last few years at Fidelity I was a community manager for many internal communities of practice.  I implemented wikis, forums, blogs, and other web 2.0 technologies to support many business and technology groups.  I also established a community management practice, helping drive consistency in the way we implemented internal communities.

I was an Enterprise Architect at Fidelity for seven years.  As an EA, I established guidelines for the performance testing of XML Web Services.  I wrote the secure code guidelines for .NET coding practices.  I managed an internal consultancy providing service to the development and engineering departments.  And I managed the Technology Directions process — an arm of the IT Governance organization which helped drive consistency of practice across 250 technology area across the corporation.

More information about my work experiences is found on my LinkedIn profile.  Please take a look.  Feel free to reach out and join my network too.  Just let me know who you are. I look forward to meeting you.
