So .. Who are you then?

My name is Sharon – I’m a geek and a Disney-o-holic …

I have been working in the IT Industry since 1996 years starting out as a lowly PC and Printer engineer.

Since 2003 I have been dabbling in all things WebSphere including Application Server, Portal and Commerce, amongst many other IBM/Lotus software offerings .

I worked for an IBM Premier Business Partner for 6 years mentored by one of the UKs leading experts on WebSphere, WebSphere Commerce, WebSphere Portal, TAM and iSeries

I am now a Social Business Architect at Collaboration Matters working on all things collaborative and IBM/Lotus software based.

This is my personal blog, for technical related posts, ICS/Lotus Community things and random personal and Disney related postings. For the Collaboration Matters blog see here.

In 2011/12 I was honored and very proud to have been announced as an IBM Champion for Collaboration Solutions & was lucky enough to be awarded for 2012/13 again – Thank you IBM

I am also a HUGE fan of Disney, from films, books, clothing, toys you name it.

I am a massive Eeyore fan also (I like all sized of Eeyores not just massive ones) ,
when we get the time and finances there is nothing I like better than to take my daughter Emily (who is also a Disney nut) and my long suffering other half Cole (who is a Disney fan by proxy) to Disneyland Paris.
