Welcome

I'm Divendra Seeram, aka Div, aka Vinny. I'm a New York City based IT guy. I've worked as a sysadmin and a DBA/Data Engineer. I also moonlight as a stand-up comedian.

On this site, I post articles largely detailing my administration and development of this site, and of any other subjects I find noteworthy. If you'd like to learn more about my work or contact me directly, you can check out the links on the top-right of the navbar or head to my Contact page.
