Sean D.

I am a San Francisco Bay Area-based entrepreneur, consultant, and writer with a strong background in the areas of business, technology, and marketing. I am also an internationally-recognized expert on enterprise information technologies, as I have written for major IT industry magazine and book publishers, and spoken at many of the industry's largest conferences. My accomplishments include the founding of several successful ventures including Realtimepublishers[dot]com, a leading web-based publisher of books, community portals (including WiredBerries[dot]com, a women’s health and lifestyle community), videos, and other media in the health/lifestyle and technology industries. The past decade of my career has included numerous achievements, such as an 8-year stint as Senior Contributing Editor (columnist and feature article writer) at Penton Media's Windows IT Pro Magazine, authoring of numerous IT books including The Definitive Guide™ to Windows 2000 Administration, The Definitive Guide™ to Active Directory Troubleshooting (Realtime Publishers), and Optimizing Windows NT® (Wiley/Hungry Minds), as well as being a frequent speaker at industry conferences throughout the world such as HP World, Compaq/Digital Wizards, and Windows Connections.
