Homepage ... Ken’s Background
Ken worked at Honeywell Underseas Systems Division in the Twin Cities
from 1978 until 1992, where he led the development of database
applications for more than 20 departments. He started a user group
which grew to 200+ members. In 1992 he left Honeywell to start his own
business in systems development, and by 2000 he had added website
design to his portfolio.
Ken is now semi-retired, but he continues to support a number clients, in some cases
using remote connections to their networks. In addition, he works with clients to
develop a web presence, focusing primarily on small companies establishing their initial
websites. Among his associates are folks with far greater creative vision and high-tech
skills who can take over when a client is ready to transition to a more ambitious website.
In the fall of 2009, Ken’s career will have come full circle, as he may be teaching one or
more Continuing Education courses at the University of Wisconsin’s Sheboygan
campus. He began his career as an English teacher; his resume includes technical
writing, marketing communications, database design, teaching classes in database
design, web development, and consulting.
Ken is a graduate of Northern Michigan University. When he’s not at his keyboard, he’s
likely spending time with grandkids, riding his motorcycle, driving his convertible, or
kayaking. He also operates the busiest English-language website devoted to the sport
of ski jumping ... which will be getting a makeover this summer!

or the nearby countryside.
A few aren’t from the local
area, but were selected
because they’re somehow
relevant to a page topic.
