Just starting a videography company, you would be surprised how many people seem to wait till your charging to take you up on your offer to make them a video. I understand, when ever someone uses the word "free" it tends makes you wonder what's wrong with it.

System administrator ,HPUX primary, also Linux, Solaris and a bit AIX.
I also handle apps like IBM MQ, IBM WAS, Tomcat HA configurations and such.

Database-wise i have basic Oracle and DB2 knowledge.

IMHO, a great choice for work, constantly growing and learning.
