About the Author

Larry P. Haig has over 25 years of IT industry experience with vendors large and small, and independent consulting companies.

Larry has an MBA from Kingston University Business School in the UK, and has undertaken post-MBA courses at Warwick Business School and Harvard Business School. His original business research interest was in corporate culture and change management, which he continually tries to bring to bear on the practice of external monitoring and frontend optimization—with variable success!

Involved in corporate web deployment since the early days of the web (1995), Larry has specialized in web-based digital performance for over a decade.

In 2012, Larry was an external monitoring SME and a senior consultant at Intechnica, a performance consultancy in Manchester, UK. He took early retirement in 2016 to focus on a portfolio of IT-related business goals, although he maintains his interest in the development of performance optimization techniques. He has been a speaker at Velocity Amsterdam.

Outside work, Larry enjoys village life, long distance walking, and a variety of quixotic projects that keep him off the streets.
