KUMCI work at the University of Kansas Medical Center where I'm the Director of Internet Development. We have over 20 staff working on all sorts of great projects ranging from the Kansas Library Card that affords 50,000 Kansans access to online databases, to the myKUMC institutional portal, to the National Database of Nursing Quality Indicators that over a 1,500 hospitals and 300,000 nurses use to assess their environments.

Day-to-day I manage our projects (around eighty active at any given time) and generally work on strategic and tactical directions for information technology at the medical center. I can still swing vi and grep with the best of the worst Solaris admins. And I've only rm'd the passwd file once in thirteen years.

I also am on the national faculty at the School of Library & Information Management at Emporia State University. I teach graduate courses in information architecture and the structure and organization of information technology.

My professional interests lay in digital libraries, identity management and single sign on solutions, portals, social media, and web services. In the distant past I wrote a chapter in a book titled Designing Portals: Opportunities and Challenges and have a few academic journal articles laying around someplace.
