Welcome to the home of the Wondernerd. As you may have guessed I embrace the name and gladly show it off.

1drNerd (read wondernerd) Kansas license plate that is home on the range

It’s interesting as I drive my vehicle around Kansas (yes, this nerds home is on the range) people stop and ask me what my license plate says or ask “what does One Doctor Nerd mean?” At which point I get to explain to them that it actually reads as wondernerd (One – der – nerd).

As you can tell my passion and my living are based on technology and if you want to get even more in depth End User Computing (EUC), Graphical Processing Units (GPUs), and AI are major areas of interest for me. The site is filled with much of what I do with them on a daily basis. Please feel free to take a look around.

Aside from talking nerdy. I also enjoy meteorology, things like tornadoes (I’m in Kansas), updrafts, micro bursts, sunsets, and so much more. From time to time I’ll share what I get to see here on the range.

2026 is starting off as a busy year with several items on my calendar. I’m really excited about developing content on VMware Private AI, along with how you can build a home lab that will take advantage of it on a budget. Additionally, I have a lot of fun and quirky EUC items in the hopper, both for work and personally. I really look forward to sharing about those, maybe even in a session at a conference. You can catch me at different industry events, look for me at:

If you would like me to come and speak at your event or to your organization please let me know.

Thanks for the visit,

The Wondernerd

Humans and robots working in cubicles with virtual desktops delivered by EUC as someone looks out over the vast expanse of users. This image is AI generated using the following prompt in Copilot: Create a digital illustration of a vast office landscape filled with hundreds of cubicles stretching to the horizon. Each cubicle is separated by light gray walls and contains either a humanoid robot or a human worker seated at a desk with a computer. Approximately 80% of the cubicles should contain robots, and 20% should contain humans. The robots should vary in eye color (e.g., blue, green, amber, violet) and some should wear ties to resemble office attire. The humans should be dressed in typical business clothing. The humans should be both male and female. The humans should represent different nationalities. There should be only one human or robot per cubical. In the foreground, include a person standing in an elevated position, looking out over the cubicle grid as if surveying the scene. The overall tone should be muted and professional, with soft lighting and a sense of depth created by the receding cubicles.
