I decided to create this blog so I could track and journal my online research in Electronic Content Management (ECM) and Electronic Document Management (EDM) technologies. I feel it will provide not only a useful tool for my day to day research, but I hope it also builds a community among others employed in these fields of work.

My career in the ECM and EDM worlds began in 1996 when I was recruited right out of college to work in technical support for a company at the time known as Tangent Systems, LLC. I stayed with this company through two more name changes before I moved on. Since 1996 I have worked in the role of a ECM & EDM Administrator, solutions consultant/architect, service provider, and as a SaaS & workflow architect. I have worked with a variety of document repository systems, OCR/ICR/OMR production systems and hardware.
