Jeff Diercks is a consultant for ILM Professional Services. He is a developer, architect and MCSD who has been designing and developing business systems over 10 years. Jeff has fully embraced his nerdiness, and likes to spend his spare time keeping up to date with the latest machinations emanating from the alt.net community and battling monsters with his druidic night elf in World of Warcraft.

Jessy Houle is an independent consultant representing Minnesota. He is a web developer, and MCSD (C# track), loves long romantic nights where he dabbles at the nuts and bolts level of programming. Jessy loves the front-end, most specifically Silverlight, and finally loves to tease Jeff about playing video games :-)
