I’m a Danish Identity & Access Management professional and Oracle strategist living in Oslo, Norway, and my name used to be Espen Hartwich.
Nowadays, actually since 2009, it’s Espen Barroso-Gomez, as I’ve come to admit that my wife had a cooler name (and since my two youngest children have this last name).
Other than being a consultant, I’ve been an EBS/Apps DBA, an Oracle DBA, a Perl developer, a service management developer, a UNIX sysadmin, an IT operations center operator and a helpdesk operator. That could summarize my professional progression, though of course the “consultant” part of it might probably be considered regression :)
I mainly – at the moment – work with projects using Oracle Identity Manager, Oracle Access Manager and Oracle Identity Federation, though the list is steadily increasing. I’ve still worked many more years with the Fusion Middleware tech stack in general, than with IAM yet, though.
Lastly, I’m a chemist, having studied Chemistry at the University of Oslo and the University of Copenhagen. But I don’t get to blow thing up very often any more, that’s why I’m in IT instead..
