Profile: ArnieRowland

During his career as a outspoken architect and application developer with very large databases, Arnie realized that most issues between Developer and DBA comes from incomplete communication and a misunderstanding of each other's primary directive. As a frequent Trainer and Mentor for Developers and Database Administrators, he has nurtured a knack for helping to 'bridge the gap'. Arnie is a rare mix of expert developer and gifted database administrator, bringing both sets of skills to better communicate with development teams to create a working solution.

Arnie is a Microsoft SQL Server MVP and has been a Subject Matter Expert (SME) working on SQL Server 2000 and SQL Server 2005 training courses and has recently been involved as a SME with the development of the SQL 2008 Microsoft Certification Exams. He is also a Microsoft Certified Trainer, and has served as a technical editor for several publishers, including multiple SQL Sever 2005 titles in the Microsoft Official Curriculum. Arnie has served as adjunct faculty at the University and Community College levels. Clients include Multi-National and Fortune 500 companies, Federal and State agencies, Foreign governments, nationally recognized training facilities, and local enterprises –both public and private.
