It’s all about Passion
Short Bio
I’m an IBM Maximo thought leader.
Since 2009 I’ve been helping medium-large clients to successfully implement EAM/ESM solutions.
I’ve been blogging for over a decade, and coding for twice that. I have developed MxLoader and other useful stuff for the Maximo technical community.
This is my online home. If you like my work:
