I am a solutions-focused information technology (IT) professional and a transformative, inspiring leader with a unique blend of data center infrastructure and team management expertise. As a proud veteran of the US Air Force, I apply my disciplined focus, drive for innovation, and refreshing energy to drive efficiency and implementation.Throughout my career, I've honed my skills to mitigate risks, maximize uptime, and streamline operations, ensuring that each move aligns with the organization’s big-picture strategy and continuously creates efficient and effective systems. I have consistently earned recognition as a trusted advisor who formulates and implements strategic solutions. I tackle complex issues head-on, spearhead cost-reduction measures, and catalyze organizational growth.Below is a selection of recent accomplishments from my tenure at RSM: ● Decreasing outage and trouble repair intervals by developing an in-office dashboard display to monitor key metrics, creating a streamlined service desk, and improving responsiveness.● Leading a national data center team of 20 experts with $7.6M combined annual service revenue.● Serving as a virtual CIO to firm clients, participating in IT strategy leadership, chairing IT steering committee groups, and providing general IT consulting.● Challenging the status quo, refusing to accept "because that’s how we’ve always done it" as a reason not to innovate or improve, and consistently demonstrating out-of-the-box thinking.I am always open to expanding my professional network.
