| Resume and skills matrix in PDF format and MS Word format |
Completed 4 contracts with Sierra Systems and the Alberta Energy Regulator between November 2012 and March 2015.
Since leaving my last assignment at Talisman Energy, I have declared myself to be "on sabbatical". I have caught up with a number of personal projects and tasks including being President and Webmaster for the Alberta Model Engineering Society. I may still consider returning to work on a short term and/or part time assignment basis. My considerable and varied IT Experience makes me suitable for any number of assignments. I would be happy to discuss any potential assignments with you.
In addition to the Information Technology background I describe in my resume, I also maintain the following web sites for friends and associates. This has permitted me to stay in touch with software development and web technologies which I would not otherwise have had a chance to enjoy as a full time IT Team Lead/Project manager.

| Aurelio Verdone - Saga | My dad died on January 18, 2008. During the years between 1994 and 1999 he spent many hours documenting the time from his earliest memories to his marriage to my mom in 1951. He called this "the Verdone Saga". My son Michael used the text documents dad created and created this website. It has been off line for quite a while but, at the request of some of my relatives, here it is again. Enjoy. |
