Tony Fuqua Email & Phone Number

Indianola, Iowa, United States

I run all facets of this self-built technology consultancy serving global businesses. This includes delivering CTO-type services for small business clients spanning database administration, general IT management, and new solutions development. I have created a wide range of software and systems focused on adding value to client organizations through various technology project management initiatives.

I was recruited as our lead software developer and systems integrator collaborating directly with clients on solution deployment. On a daily basis, I lead the production of virtual and hybrid events, including teams of up to 15 people. My role requires mentoring and training technologists in various development and IT methodologies. Together we build and implement virtual event platforms (Adobe Connect, Zoom, WebEx, Microsoft Teams, and many others). Among my key wins with Virtual Velocity, I have generated company savings by writing software designed to cut administrative tasks and workload, and written new programs that improve overall software management and business operations.

Promoted to CTO in 2017 due to exemplary performance as a contractor, I developed our entire IT department from the ground-up, including designing and building all network systems. My role included training, coaching, and directing 40+ onshore and offshore specialists.

This position was unfortunately cut short due to a car accident when an on coming driver struck me.
