Location and contact info.
I am keeping this as a journal and communication medium for those who are after me for more warm fuzzies.  I currently live in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia however am in the process of moving to Singapore.  In Malaysia I can be reached at our office number of 6 03 253 3599 or when I am in Singapore I normally stay at the Otani Hotel at 65 338 3333.  My mobile is supposed to work everywhere but is unreliable at best.  That number is 6 012 236 1221.  I check email regularly at [email protected].  You can send regular mail to:  ShowCase Corp, 50-6-3 Wisma UOA Damansara, Jalan Dungun, Damansara Heights, Kuala Lumpur Malaysia 50490.

The picture is of the Petronas Twin Towers the tallest building in the world.  That is if you don't count the spire on top of the Sears Tower but decide to count this one.

Activities - just how close to death I have come recently.

Activities include motorcross riding in the jungle see pictures left.  Left pictures of the first dirt bike excursion prior to my accident.  Since then Tim and I went again and he broke his foot.  Seems like maybe we should get some proper gear before heading out next time.  Tim just moved to Japan.  Scuba diving during my visit in March 1999 (see links below) then again a few months ago.  I am in the process of getting certified which will make that a lot easier. Cart racing pictures will hopefully follow soon.   Below is a wreck at the Formula 1 race near KL that Tim and I attended last season.  Lower left is a picture of Shelly Palmer and I, not really an activity exactly maybe more along the lines of a special interest.  We have been dating since about March 1999, she works for Sprint in southern LA and her parents used to own Jeds Landing in Mobridge.  Lets see we have known each other since I was about 10 and get along great. 

 

 

Career information.
As it has recently occurred to me few know what it is I do anyway, myself included here I will attempt to explain.  I work for ShowCase Corp traded as SHWC a software company based in Rochester MN.  They help companies take the data that they have and create meaningful reports or information from it.  This varies from basic reporting to complex analysis.  When I joined them 5 years ago as a Consultant based in Chicago I was primarily engaged in post-sales activities like training and assistance with implementation of our programs.  After a couple of years I moved into a pre-sales role, in California, where I assisted sales reps with convincing prospective customers to purchase from us.  This involved demonstrations and prototypes as well as technical discussions with  prospective customers.  Now I am in Malaysia where I haven't the foggiest, I mean where I assist our business partners whom we sell through to be successful.  This involves scuba diving... I mean marketing events, sales calls, both pre and post sales activities, etc.  Here is a link to ShowCase's web site.  ShowCase Corp
