Xriva is better known as Kevin John Gilhooly, a nonprofit consultant for Gilhooly Consulting, Ltd., a certified SCORE consultant, a retired technical lead at IBM in Dallas, and the President of Sparky's Pals.

What is an "Xriva"?
This is actually a pretty simple explanation (the only one on this page.) If you rot13 Kevin, you will get Xriva. Hence the name.

Professional
Kevin was the Global Technical Lead for the Cloud Technical Hosting Exchange at the IBM Innovation Center in Dallas. The program and center are now deceased. Kevin is now at Gilhooly Consulting, working with startup nonprofits on the business aspects of running a nonprofit. Kevin was on the board of KNON  for over nine years, and was President for eight of those years. He is an ordained minister and a travel consultant.

Home Life
Kevin is married to someone (who for rather obvious reasons) prefers to be known simply as "the Spousal Unit." He also has two PsychoPuppies (Katie and Rocky) in the house, which explains the background noise on conference calls. When not in meetings, he is usually working on Java programming for cloud deployments.
