The empires of the future are the empires of the mind. Sir Winston Churchill
My name is Shaun Rowland. Welcome to my personal website. I used to work at The Ohio State University in the Department of Computer Science and Engineering. I worked for the CSE department since June 1, 1998, in the following positions:
- System Administrator (1998 - 2000)
- Senior Software Specialist (2000 - 2001)
- Manager, Software Support and Development (2001 - 2006)
- Programmer/Sysadmin/Tester for NBCL (2006 - 2007)
- Manager of Systems (2007 - 2015)
I currently work at Corelight (formerly Broala) in the following positions:
- Senior Platform Engineer (2015 - 2016)
- Director of Platform Engineering (2016 - present)
All of the previous OSU positions except the first had the classification of Senior Systems Developer/Engineer. My CSE jobs included running the production Solaris, Linux, and Windows servers and providing support to research systems. Now I work on products for Corelight, where we illuminate visibility into networks.
I have a few other interests as well:
- Photography
- Drawing
- Anime
- Manga
I am a huge anime/manga fan. I think this started with watching Nausicaä Of The Valley Of The Wind and Robotech when I was young. I like anything that has a good story and characters that I can feel something for.
