I am an independent consultant based in the Chicago area. I have been working with Citrix technologies since the WinView product days. Most of my clients are Fortune 500 companies primarily in the Financial Services and Insurance markets.
After spending a long time lurking on a variety of forums and learning from others, I decided it was time to give back. I got involved trying to help the server based computing community in February, 2005. Since that time I've become an active poster on various support forums. Read me on Brianmadden.com (over 2000 posts) and on the official Citrix Support Forums (approx 1000 posts), and on AppVirtGuru.com (approx 300 posts). I have also presented sessions at numerous technical conferences worldwide (here). And, finally I bring all my years of experience and technical expertise to the classroom. I teach a five (5) day Advanced Citrix Training class in cities across the U.S. and Europe thoroughout the year. Click for more information and how to register.
In July 2006, I was recognized by Citrix as an inaugural member of their Citrix Technology Professionals program. I was re-awarded the CTP for 2007 - 2010.
In July 2008, Microsoft awarded me with an MVP award for Terminal Server. I was re-awarded the MVP for 2009 - 2011.
