Background

About David Baylor

I'm the person you want to bring into every meeting because I can help any group focus on the subject at hand and find constructive solutions to problems. The skills I have picked up on my career journey come from a variety of industries. Advertising taught how to leverage the talents of others and coordinate team efforts to produce a product none of us could have made on our own. As a consultant I balanced tight timelines, trained new teams, and overcame obstacles for production facilities. In dealing directly with software I can say that performing technical support earned me the type of troubleshooting skills that I am sure only support technicians can begin to appreciate. Keeping up with the blistering pace of development in the open-source storage software world showed me that this is something I'm good at and something I will never tire of. My working mood has been described succinctly as "relentlessly positive but somehow not annoying." I come in every day ready to learn, instruct, collaborate, and get things done. Work/life balance is something I take seriously, and if you want to get into a very long conversation just ask me about adult kickball, proper techniques for pizza making, or what edition of Dungeons & Dragons is the best to play.
