About
So about me…hmmm. Lets see I am 6′3″ tall brownish blond hair with rippling muscles…oh this isn’t my Match.com profile. 
Just kidding Lindsay! As I say in my first post I am just a normal guys heading into my 30’s who wants to share his story to whoever out there it might entertain or help get a better understanding of what makes me tick. I have a lovely wife Lindsay and the greatest dog a guy could ever ask for in my 7.5lb Shih-tzu Bella. I am a die hard Chicago sports fan and love nothing more than a Sunday afternoon watching the Bears dominate.
I am a software performance architect / senior technical manager working for IBM’s WebSphere Application Server product line. I’ve been a computer geek as long as I can remember and always have had fun making them and their software go faster be it overclocking the old Pentium Pro and AMD K6 chips with turbo prop size cooling fans, profiling and rewriting code until its at its bare minimum, or figuring out how to build out an infrastructure of hundreds of server class machines and middleware software products so you can say I am right at home in my job. There are days I hate it but for the most part I honestly love coming to work everyday.
