Dave was a product of the IT revolution of the mid-90's and although he started his career as a journalist for a newspaper he quickly found himself trying to figure out how technology was going to change it all.  For 15 years Dave has been involved with Microsoft technologies in one way or another.  Over his career he has worked with Microsoft solutions and products as a systems integrator, helping organizations better leverage Microsoft solutions as an industry analyst, and at times devising strategies to undo Microsoft as a competitor.  It would be fair to say he's always been known as the guy who knows stuff about Microsoft... a lot of stuff.  Currently Dave is responsible for defining the Go-To-Market strategy for OpenText's Microsoft Solutions business unit and spends his days trying to figure out how global organizations can intelligently manage all the information being put into this industry changing technology.
