      Designed and executed the migration of Novell and Exchange as part of the divestiture from Bristol Myers Squibb. Created custom scripts to accommodate migration scenarios, as well as a highly efficient login script. Travelled extensively; particularly in Asia to manage local resources involved in the process.

    • M&T Bank

      Jan 2012 - Jan 2014
      Consultant

      Due to specific requirements that no out of the box solution offered, I designed and created a custom application and process for migrating from Novell to a Microsoft Windows based environment. This solution included the creation of groups, nesting groups, populating those, copying the data and setting permissions as well as creating DFS links amongst other things. This was a turnkey solution that was then handed off to Bank resources (Once mentored) that was successfully used for the entire project. I also created a similar solution that was used to migrate from an acquisition that was already Microsoft based (Wilmington Trust). Because this was a parallel effort to the Novell migration, I performed this migration as a “Big Bang” migration over a single weekend. Show less
