Hmmm, where do I start…..

Located in Dacula, GA. Married with one kid (currently 13), two monster dogs (Dalmation & Jack Russell), two freaky horses (both Arabian), and a Royal Highness Persian cat! I’m a retired US Army guy, who misses dearly being in a parachute! Misses parts of the Army, but in others I’m glad they are gone! (who needs to walk 25 miles!)

I currently provide Systems Engineer and Administration services for two companies with over 5,000 users all in all. About 40 odd servers under my fingertips so I am always on the pursuit to ease manageability of it all. I love challenges so I am a jack of all trades so to speak.

Although, I hadn’t intended it. My focus is almost purely on messaging infrastructure, Active Directory integration, and administrative scripting with VBS, PHP (including web), .NET, and trying to bring Bash into that as well. Its fun, but I do miss building servers and the like sometimes, so I have to build my own.

An avid reader, fanatical fisherman, speed freak (never too fast), spaced out star-watcher, weirdo lover of SciFi, and a geek of all things tech pretty much rounds out the mix.

You can find me at multiple places as darkstar3d (older sites even as darkstar). I frequent the graphical boards, the BMW boards, MSDN, Experts Exchange, and a few others.
