About Michael Barnes

I am a seasoned technology sales professional who cares about you, your organization and how to deliver technology to solve your problems. I have many years experience linking customers with technologies that improve their organization\'s effectiveness. I have been blessed in my career by being at the right place at the right time. I turned my passion for technology into a fun and productive career that continues today. I have often heard that do what you love and you will never work a day in your life. I have worked for several great companies that include well-known companies such as Sun Microsystems, Molex and now BlackBerry Mobile. I have also worked for some great smaller companies and started a couple of companies of my own. I have always focused on delivering technology to improve organizational effectiveness and to make individuals more productive. I love meeting with the customer and working with them directly.
