My
professional life
- I
am working for ADP since 6 years. I am implementing pay system for
externals clients. You can wait forever for a medical operation but the PAY
need to be available and exact on Thursday. Very different from postponed
projects and multiple patches in the computing area.
- Sometimes I am
doing smalls contracts as a System Integration Specialist. I can manage a
network system, maintain a pool of servers, support many users, update and
program web pages, create different applications and manage project and
peoples. All that on PC, MAC, SUN or Mainframe.
- I worked as a
Product Specialist Digital for Heidelberg in 2002 - 2003.
- I worked
at Xerox from 1983 to 2001 as a national specialist in connected products. I had
the chance to work in a number of fields as this company was
technologically always in advance (Ethernet, the mouse, GUI interface,
etc.).
- I learned numerous
applications such as Visual Studio,
Office VBA,
WordPress, Microsoft Expression,
PhotoShop etc.
- I can troubleshoot
various types of networks
connection (Microsoft,
Internet (TCP/IP),
Wireless, Data on cellular network, etc).
-
All
that experience is used to create a very efficient program (Rally Scoring)
and help me being a very good administrator producing
fast results during
events.

My personal interests
Computer
When you have
programming as a hobby, only time can limit the
beauty of your creations.
Car Rallying
My interest
in
Car Rallying
dates back to 1972. I am doing rally scoring using a computer since 1981. At the
time I was using a Coco from Radio Shack (8 mHz, 48 Kb).
My data was saved on audio tape cassettes and I was dependent on
electricity.
Mountain Bike
As
a youngster I was riding bicycles naturally, but
mountain
biking radically
changed my perception of that sport. I never realized that going downhill on a
single track trail could be so much fun. Since, I am riding my
new
Specialized
StumpJumper Comp 2013
mountain bike
when I have time. When I am alone I head for the
Bromont
trails,
but for group biking I prefer the Laurentians, with a club called
PDN.
I am riding in the dark during the
week using a set of 1800 lumens lamp. Also I ride bike with steel stud in winter
still in the trail.
