Citrix Administrator / Senior Windows Administrator
Install, Setup, Maintain, Administer, and Troubleshoot:
Four Citrix Farms, two Windows Based and two UNIX Based.
Two of the Farms are in the Build and Test Lab
Windows Server 2003 and 2008 servers running AD, IIS, DHCP, DNS and SQL.
Continuity of Operations (COOP) Scripting, Administering, Testing
Third Tier Support of Workstations and Laptops
I maintain and recommend how Group Policies are created and applied to the Citrix Farms,
Windows Servers and Workstations. I was a Domain Administrator for the Build and Test
environment.
I have participated with implementing Least User Access (LUA) at the Workstation level.
Another duty is to participate in confirming systems are compliant with approved STIGs as
well as building compliant baseline OS images.
I am an active participant for the Continuity of Operations (COOP). As a primary member
of the Hurricane Response Team, I am responsible for maintaining the COOP Citrix Servers,
Applications, Scripting and Active Directory user configurations.
I have led a team of as large as three administrators on Citrix related implementation
projects. Most of the initial projects I was the sole member of the Citrix Team. All
Citrix Projects have involved upgrading either the Operating System, Citrix XenApp and/or
end user software packages hosted on the Server Farms.
My first project was to upgrade the OEMM Citrix Server Farm from Windows 2000 and Citrix
MetaFrame XP to Windows Server 2003 and Presentation Server 4 and also to make Continuity
of Operations a more robust solution. This project lasted around nine months as there was
no knowledge transfer and little documentation of how and why the Citrix Farm was being
utilized.
I have also participated in an Active Directory Forest migration. I was a team member for
the Gulf of Mexico Region.
