So it has been over five and a half years since I started a job. I forgot how nervous one can get! I’m excited, but nervous at the same time. New people, new places, new things to do. Fortunately for me, I know some of the faces, less so some of the places, and have an idea of some of the new things to do. I’m starting up at DotNetNuke’s Headquarters in the morning.
My wife and I spent today getting things squared away around San Mateo. We came in town just afternoon from staying last night in Vacaville, California, and visiting some old haunts from my high school days.
The first thing we took care of was getting my car trailer into storage, we road tripped out here over the past three days in our truck, with my car in tow. Natalie will be spending the week here looking for rental houses, and a place to board and train her dressage horse. After which time she will be driving back “home” for a while, while we wait for the house to sell back in Colorado.
Hopefully tomorrow night the real estate agent we’re meeting with will be able to point us to some potential rental homes that will work out for us. This hotel thing will likely get really old really quick!
I’ll try to post another update later in the week after things get moving along. I’m sure I will have lots of paperwork tomorrow and then getting situated within the organization. I’m excited, nervous, and anxious to get started!

Today was my last day at Engage Software as I am starting up as the Director of Training Programs with the DotNetNuke Corporation on Monday March 1st.
I’ve been working for Engage for over 5 and a half years now, and I’ve been able to enjoy what I do that entire time. Back before I started at Engage i was using DotNetNuke for my hobby websites, mainly for car racing sites, but occasionally for a few other things as well.
Engage offered me an environment where I could work with DotNetNuke every day, something I looked forward to. Over the years Engage became very embedded into the DNN world, providing a wide variety of services and products for DotNetNuke. During that time I was afforded the opportunity to become more and more involved in the DotNetNuke Project, shortly after starting at Engage being invited to join the DotNetNuke Core Team.
