Hi, I’m Ron – welcome to my corner of the web. I am a husband, father and grandfather of two perfect boys. I enjoy learning about and using technology. Although I’ve done some web development in the past, clearly web design is not my strong suite – but I enjoy trying. Woodcarving has been a hobby for many years, and being able to whittle some basswood while camping with my family is the perfect vacation.
Whether it is technology or the people who use it, my entire career has been about managing change. While on active duty I participated in many of the Navy’s technology changes such as the move from vacuum tubes to solid state electronics, the replacement of their paper-based messaging system to a fully computerized desktop messaging delivery system, and the integration of information technology training in the Navy’s communications schools.
While at Rosalind Franklin University I was involved in computer lab upgrades, desktop software and hardware standardization, the replacement of legacy systems, the development of a state-of-the-art datacenter, and numerous building projects.
In my current role at Moraine Valley Community College I oversee both the Multimedia Services and Web Technology departments. Recent projects include creating technology infused classrooms, implementation of Microsoft’s SharePoint collaboration system, and the (accessible) re-design of the college web site (in progress).
