I’m an infinitely adaptable IT professional who can build innovative software solutions, strengthen IT infrastructure environments, introduce capable new technologies, and tackle tough security issues while ensuring the entire enterprise ecosystem continues to run flawlessly. I am especially drawn to cloud computing, virtualization, and AR/VR spaces, and am eager to do my part in shaping the future of the industry and creating a better world for global professionals. Point me at an ineffective process or inefficient system and watch me make it better.I believe in the power of continuous improvement and challenge myself to make our lives easier and the business’s bottom line stronger. Although I excel at executing so-called “impossible” tasks, my skills truly shine when I’m rebuilding the entire process so every part becomes possible. My motto is, “Everything should be made as simple as possible, but no simpler.” That means the tasks that my teammates dread when they wake up in the morning will soon be streamlined, accelerated, or automated—allowing us to focus on what we do best: making better solutions for our customers. I take a similar approach to strategic planning; not only do I think of everything when making plan A, I always have plans B to G ready to go.As a lifelong learner, I know the value of a trustworthy mentor and eagerly share what I know with others. I’m an excellent presenter and guest speaker with a genuine interest in helping people reach their goals. My team-first attitude comes from the Marines, where going the extra mile was mandatory to succeed in our mission. Investing in self-development elevates the entire team’s performance, leading to happier customers and a more fulfilling workplace.Specialties: Managing Large, Distributed Enterprise Networks & Systems ✯ Building & Leading Full-Stack Teams ✯ Software & Application Development ✯ Risk Management, Business Continuity, & Disaster Recovery ✯ SaaS, PaaS, IaaS, FaaS, & iPaaS Environments
