22ndBeing a vSpec : One year under the belt

Today is the one year anniversary of joining EMC as a vSpecialist. Kind of feels like I just got here and compared to some of the vets, I have. Still I think back to my first post on moving to the vendor side of things (Change is good : Fear & Atmosphere) and I am amazed at everything that has happened to me since then. As I pointed out back in that blog post. My goal was to surround myself by people that would challenge me in new areas. That has definitely been the case this year and is still a primary motivator for me. I can also say this job has used a broader set of my skills than any other.

I decided to throw together a video of random pictures from the last year as a vSpecialist. Here is my year as a vSpec:

I am really looking forward to the rest of 2011 and where my career takes me at EMC. Guess that big step in February of 2010 ended up being a good one after all.

    Congratulations on the one year @ EMC. You guys have an excellent team looking at the pictures. And your even getting your mentor (coach, initiator ;-) ) on board….. Have a even better second year.

    And on your “question” why people follow you: For me it’s about a good and honest blogging, twitter guy who has some mind boggling posts…. And it’s great to see your not forgetting the family @ home….

    Keep the good stuff coming ;-)
