Traxinger Matthew: Matt Traxinger graduated from the Georgia Institute of Technology in 2005 with a B. S. in Computer Science, specializing in Human Computer Interaction and Cognitive Science. After college he took a job as an add-on developer using a language he was unfamiliar with for a product he had never heard of: Navision. It turned out to be a great decision. In the years following Matt learned all areas of the product and earned Microsoft Certified Business Solutions Professional certifications in both technical and functional areas of NAV. He continues to stay current with new releases of the product and is certified in multiple areas for versions 4. 0, 5. 0, and 2009. Currently Matt works in Norcross, GA, for Canvas Systems, one of the largest resellers of new and refurbished computer equipment as an in-house NAV Developer and Business Analyst. He supports multiple offices in the United States as well as locations in the United Kingdom and the Netherlands. In his spare time you can find him on the online communities Mibuso. com and DynamicsUser. net under the name MattTrax, helping others learn more about the Dynamics NAV software.
