This is my third iteration of this blog. Originally I started drafting sort of a playful blog with a bunch of fluff. I have sense decided to use the advice of Roxette’s album “Don’t Bore Us, Get to the Chorus!” That said here we go…
On Wednesday, May 30th, I was given the opportunity to explore new directions as my current role, creating technical marketing content for VDI offerings, will no longer exist after June 15th. What does that mean? It means I won’t be delivering technical content around VDI at Dell EMC, I may continue at Dell EMC but I won’t be doing it VDI, for right now.
It also means that I’m exploring other opportunities both inside and outside of Dell EMC. I think it would be wise to find an organization who could use my WonderNerd powers to create something awesome. Therefore I am looking for something new and exciting in the tech industry. (Please don’t assume I’m exclusively VDI.)
You may wonder if this means I’m vanishing from Dell EMC. I’m not intending to in the least. I’m extremely excited about an position on another team within Dell EMC, working on some very very very cool converged infrastructure stuff. (Did I mention it was very cool?) I’d be doing technical marketing and would get the opportunity to leverage the knowledge I gained when I was at VCE as well as the skills gained on other teams. As part of the role I’d get to do a lot of the things I really enjoy, like field enablement, architecture, design validations, and working with really cool technology. If I do land on this converged infrastructure team I guarantee you, I’ll be sharing more details about it as they become generally available.
Even though I’m very excited about this possible role and the opportunity to continue at Dell EMC, it’s not guaranteed yet. To that end, as Stephen Hawking said, “I have so much that I want to do. I hate wasting time.” So while I’m waiting for this new program I mentioned, I am not going to let time just slip away, allowing someone else to determine my destiny. I’m going to see what’s out there.
I have a lot I want to do, things I’ve never done, realities I’ve yet to create, places I’ve yet to explore, a future I have yet to write. If you or your organization are interested in being part of my next great adventure, and in seeing what limits we can exceed together, contact me now. Don’t wait, I’m looking for that next phenomenal opportunity, and as soon as I find it I’m going to do everything I can to take it to the next level.
Don’t let the red nose fool you, the WonderNerd has his cape on and is moving fast…
