  • 1.  Introduction Thread - come say hi!

    Posted 09/22/25 08:30 AM

    Please use this thread to introduce yourself if you'd like!  I'll start:

    I'm Steve Riedmueller and I lead COMMON's N2i committee.  I've been working on the IBM i since 2001 as a System/Security Admin.  I joined the N2i committee to give back to the community by helping others learn about these systems that I love.  I've worked with many IBM and third-party products on this platform.  These days I head up Security Services at Kisco Systems.  I'm glad to help answer questions about system administration, security, SQL, and any other areas where I'm knowledgeable.

    I'm Anna Niederschulte and I am a IBM I Systems Engineer for Huber & Associates. I started my IBM I journey in 2022 and am enjoying it! I am happy to help and answer questions as I am able to with my limited knowledge. I am currently focusing on learning all there is to know about IBM I security and system administration. I enjoy sharing my perspective on IBM I and showing that it is a wonderful platform!

    Hi N2i πŸ‘‹

    I am not new to the IBM i platform, but I fully support what this group is doing here on TechXchange and would like to contribute wherever I can.

    A bit about me. I have worked on the platform in various roles, from Operations through Programming and now in Administration, with a dash of Integration / Architect. I have also recently started focusing on securing IBM i systems for my current client.

    I will be signing up as a mentor in the N2i program and look forward to helping new talent explore and grow on this amazing platform.

    Great to see everyone here πŸ‘€

    I'm Jasmine Kaczmarek and I'm on the N2i Committee. I've been on the platform since 2010 and have primarily focused on full stack development with RPG and open source languages as well as architecture and now strategy within an organization. 

    I'm passionate about mentoring and assisting community members with technical and career goals and love to connect with everyone from the platform. Say hi if you run into me at a technical conference!
