I'm a qualified Microsoft DBA and SQL Developer with 8 years experience. I was also a Software engineer before, in languages c# using .NET and MVC platforms. I'm from South Africa but moved to the UK 5 years ago.
I cannot work on a permanent basis for I already have a full time job as a DBA in the UK, but would like to work as part time or get paid by work done by tickets/jobs closed. For I believe DBAs are not a necessity to be a full time employees, but always be on call.
I love databases and love working, that's why I'm applying. Why I think I stand-out, is that I understand the importance of creating applications based on database architecture where other DBAs only understand the theories of databases and not really the application side, and this is because of my development experience.
I'm very proficient in database optimization with a good understanding of indexes, statistics and executions plans. I also dont charge a lot, for I enjoy working.

* DBA
Security, Optimization, Migration(Amazon AWS, Virtual Servers), Normalization, Clusters, SQL

* SQL Developer

* Developer

Please let me know if you would like to see my previous/current work.

Michael
