-PresentUniversity of California, BerkeleyManager, Systems

Programming & Data Administration & Enterprise Architect for Administrative Systems For

the last 25 years, as the manager of Systems Programming & Data Administration, I have

been responsible for a staff of 25 senior OS390/UNIX/NT system administrators and DBAs who

are charged with the development, deployment, operation, and maintenance of the Berkeley

campus' mission-critical administrative computing infrastructure. The unit's

responsibilities include OS and utilities maintenance, database management, hardware

support, system and data access security, and technical standards and development

guidelines. As manager, I was charged with influencing the technical evolution of

administrative applications. The unit has a budget of over $7M. As a recruiter and mentor,

I have cultivated a loyal and trusting relationship with my staff. For example, despite

the compensation limitations of the University, my DBAs and systems programmers have an

average tenure of 10 years. Recently, as part of the campus implementation of PeopleSoft's

Financials System, I recruited and set up a 3-person NT group to establish 35 NT Terminal

Servers/Metaframe Servers to support over 2,000 PC/MacIntosh workstations over a TCP/IP

network. The existing IBM 9672 that supports most of the campus' critical business and

student systems was used as the DB2 database Server for our PeopleSoft ERP implementation.

Leveraging this architecture allowed the University to avoid hiring as many as 50

workstation support personnel. By using IBM and DB2 as the server, existing database

expertise and operations were also leveraged, saving the University the substantial cost

of establishing a new infrastructure and hiring additional system staff. However, we now

support Oracle and Sybase on UNIX and SQL Server on NT as well, because of other

applications requirements. As a senior technical manager in the 300+ campus IT and TelCom

organization, I servede as the technical partner on many system development efforts. I

have provided technical leadership and influenced the direction of application

development, and I ensured that appropriate technology is used, so that new systems and

data can be integrated into the existing application infrastructure. As the campus Data

Administrator, I worked closely with technical directors, managers, administrators,

programmers, and analysts within central IT and across campus to forge agreements on data

sharing and to obtain consensus on issues of data privacy, data ownership, and

confidentiality. In my more recent role as the IT Enterprise Architect for Administrative

Systems, I developed an IT architectural frameowrk for the campus that has shaped the

overall IT vision for the campus computing infrastructure. I worked to achieve buy-ins by

IT directors, managers, and programmers within central IT and across the campus via

participatory forums. I developed a strategy with stakeholders and drove the elements of

the architectural framework to acceptance within the affected groups. I helped these

groups recognize technical opportunities and helped them develop proposals to obtain

funding for their projects. Currently, I am working with technical managers,

administrators, and e-Business vendors to establish an infrastructure for a campus

business portal and credit card processing. In late 1980's, when IBM first marketed its

PC, I established an "Information Center" (the pre-cursor of today's Data Warehouse) and

conducted over 3,00 student-hours of training. I organized two campus-wide PC conferences

and inspired campus management and staff to adopt the PC as a tool to improve

productivity. I taught at the Graduate School of Librarianship at UC Berkeley and I served

on the committee at the University Extension that developed the Certificate of Data

Processing program. I was also an instructor at Extension for several years.
