It's time to start thinking Ahead!

It's time to start thinking Ahead!

May 22, 2014 4 By Eric Shanks

For the past year I’ve been working as a Vice President for a startup consulting company that deals with distressed assets.  Think debt collections type stuff.  My role involved managing projects, providing technical consultations about things like PCI-DSS, HIPAA and infrastructure design. While this position was certainly challenging in its own ways, it was time for me to make a change.  I’m very excited to be joining the team at Ahead. ahd-logo-hq Ahead is a consulting company in downtown Chicago that offers a variety of services for IT delivery.

AHEAD helps clients move to an optimized IT service delivery model by accelerating their transformation from a builder of components to a broker of services. With our deep expertise in today’s compelling technologies, we ensure clients can keep pace with business demands. -From the ThinkAheadIT.com website.

If Ahead sounds familiar to you, it might be because of some of the other employees you know there.  Chris Wahl, Tim Curless and Brian Suhr are all VMware Certified Design Experts (VCDX) and Steve Pantol and Chris Wahl have recently written the Networking for VMware Administrators Book.

I am very excited to join this team as a Sr. Datacenter Engineer next week and getting back to engineering technical solutions.  I can’t wait to start.
