I have been working in the IT industry from 2008 onwards. My primary work involves administrating SQL servers. Apart from SQL, I like to learn and use new technologies which can assist a DBA for faster response and lead times. Monitoring, performance tuning, high-availability and database designing are my expertise. I also enjoy coding in platforms such as vb.net, C#, PowerShell and T-SQL.
