Introduction

I am a Canadian project manager who asked himself the question, what projects would I like to manage?

The short answer to my question is New Media, but the long answer is this blog.

Project management is such a broad field, I quickly learned that to enjoy work I need to focus on projects that match my interests. My interests revolve around IP video, gaming, augmented reality, human-computer interaction, and social networking.

I completed my bachelor studies in communications and information technology at the University of Toronto. My professional experience focuses on coordinating internet-based projects for a major Canadian telecom company. The projects I managed specifically focused on video podcasting, IP video, and social networking. Independently I have produced numerous concerts in the Greater Toronto Area, and have worked on a variety of events by North By Northeast, Random Sounds, and Open Roof Films. I currently find myself studying at the University of Amsterdam, in the Masters of New Media program.

Now, when people ask me what type of projects I manage I answer, "Nieuwe Media, eh!"
