About 2 years ago I made the transition from networking to DBA/SQL programmer. I learned a lot by viewing stored procedures, SQL, and triggers developed by others and then modified code to do what I needed it to do. I learned a lot from the T-SQL help available in Query Analyzer. All my knowledge has come from on the job training and almost all of that has been me seeking out information. When given my first database position, I had almost no knowledge of databases (I thought they were just a group of spreadsheets). One of the reasons I was given the position was because the company new I could learn anything fast. I got my current position at a different company because they saw potential in me. I have been fortunate, however if one person can get in others can too.

I enjoy developing DTS packages and stored procedures and administering SQL Servers.
