Moving on to new opportunities
It's been almost 6 years since I entered the halls of SAP and in that time a lot of things have happened, changed, evolved and been created. It's been a exciting time and one that I will remember forever, however I've decided that it's time to step back onto the ledge and take another leap. I've decided that it's time to leave SAP and explore a new opportunity that was presented to me very recently. Jun. 7, 2011
