Not your Normal IT Guy!CIO / IT Director, Professor, Consultant, Running Coach and Martial-Arts instructor.I have been at the CIO / IT Director level in the IT field since 2004. I am an experienced IT Project Manager and have led IT projects to successful conclusions in areas as diverse as Hosted / In-House email and VOIP solutions to Practice Management and Electronic Medical Records installations and migrations. I have researched, negotiated, and implemented IT projects ranging from hundreds of thousands to millions of dollars. As an IT consultant for over 20 years, I have worked with large companies with thousands of employees, to small businesses in niche markets. Before becoming an administrator, I worked for 5 years at a Technical Institute, as a computer training instructor, where I taught more than 40 software classes including the entire MS Office suite, to the power user level, and other, more specialized software, like Photoshop. I also taught technical classes by Cisco, Microsoft, and CompTIA, as well as Project Management, Web Design, and Coaching/Mentoring. I still pursue my love of teaching and giving back to the community, by teaching Cybersecurity at Tallahassee State College in their Workforce Development program.Outside of the office, I have been a martial artist for over 25 years and a coach for over 20. I won multiple national titles in full-contact fighting and wrestling. I have trained amateurs, professionals and military/para-military specialists. As a coach, I have taken my martial experience, as well as my experience as an elite high school runner, and funneled that into giving back to up-and-coming athletes. I have developed several All-Region and All-State award winners in cross country and track. Many of my runners have continued on to compete in national level competitions in both high school, AAU and USATF cross country and track, including Junior Olympics, as well as at national level meets for both the NCAA and NAIA.
