Building upon the foundations laid out during Part 1, this session continues our deep dive into practical mainframe productivity. We shift our focus toward automation and modern tooling, demonstrating how to bridge traditional mainframe practices with modern development environments. This session guides you in moving from manual tasks to automated execution, helping you reduce repetitive work and improve your interaction with the mainframe. (Topics covered will include useful commands and shortcuts, tips for TSO like jumping and stringing commands, creation of ISPF macros and REXX Execs, the basics of Unix/USS/OMVS, and using Visual Studio Code to simplify accessing mainframe files. Some examples include SRCHFOR, M [member], SORT MESSAGE, RESET, CUT/PASTE, etc...)

I am a dedicated mainframer currently working on supporting large-scale migrations and conversions to Broadcom's automation product: OPS/MVS. I help organizations seamlessly adopt and integrate advanced mainframe automation solutions. I collaborate closely with clients, tackling unique challenges and developing strategic adoption roadmaps tailored to their needs. I grew up in New York and now live in San Diego, California, blending East Coast determination with West Coast creativity. Over the course of my career, I've held roles as a Db2 Database Administrator and Storage and System Support Engineer, which provided me with a strong technical foundation and deep understanding of enterprise-level systems. I'm passionate about mainframe education and mentoring, sharing knowledge with the community, and speaking at conferences to inspire others about the future of mainframe technology. I believe in continuous learning and enjoy connecting with industry professionals to drive innovation and growth.
