Folks,

While I have a great deal of experience designing and managing IS/IT solutions
(from the wiring closets to systems integration, and user support thereof)
several aspects may not be immediately apparent from my resume:

After I bought my first computer I began to learn how to code as well as some
basic electronics and then took those budding skills to RPI, expanding them
into a B.S. in Computer Science - which, given the pervasive engineering
climate at RPI, necessitated a deeper understanding of the fundamental building
blocks of technology. Both how they function, and more importantly, how they
fail - so critical to constructing reliable systems.

I also completed a minor in Psychology; the beginning of a continuing study of
how we interact with the technology and each other - in order to make these
systems actually useful. Whether directly, as with user-interface design, or
indirectly, such as support and training.

I believe that the technology is a means rather than an end; that it should be
a tool that fades into the background of the task at hand. I prefer to refer to
my field as "Information Services" since the purpose is not the technology, but
what is enabled by harnessing it.

Of course even the most advanced technology eventually operates on a human
scale. From vendor relationships, to collegial connections, to serving the
people that live in the systems we build - in a truly collaborative fashion.

And any IS position is certainly a collaboration; a powerful one that creates
an essential two-way bridge between the people that use the systems and the
people that build them. Even in supervisory roles, I have always maintained a
direct connection with users.

Regardless the title or trappings of any position, it is in this collaboration
that I find - and strive to create - quality.

Thanks very much for the opportunity,

Marc Farnum Rendino
