My Biography

I’m an author and IT professional, specializing in wireless networking.

My Information Technology (IT) career began in late 2001 at Wireless-Nets, Ltd., a consulting firm focusing on the implementation of wireless mobile solutions and training. I started by being tasked with a variety of responsibilities, including: troubleshooting, fixing, and upgrading PC and wireless networking issues and components, developing and editing the company websites and eLearning courses, and analyzing news items related to the Wireless LAN industry for the company newsletter.

I learned more about Wireless LANs when performing research and testing to aid in the writing of tutorials and product reviews on wireless topics. I then pursued the Certified Wireless Network Administrator (CWNA) certification in order to assist with more consulting projects, such as analyzing 802.11 packet traces and performing RF site surveys.

In 2006 I attended the Tropos Networks technical training course to learn more about municipal Wi-Fi mesh networks, in order to assist with wireless surveys for the cities of San Francisco, Miami Beach, and the Denver area.

In early-2007, I began concentrating solely on my writing career, which started back in 2005 while employed part-time at Wireless LANs. I currently write tutorials for Wi-Fi Planet.com and books on general computing and wireless networking topics.
