It is my belief that leading with authenticity fosters trust, which encourages exploration, which fuels passion and creativity. I strive to be a cross-pollinating versatilist; experienced at being an IT team manager, project manager, product launcher, change coordinator, tech-support lead/developer, business analyst, marketing/comms, etc., but having also specialized in end-to-end contract/vendor management for cloud SaaS services and IT service development. I enjoy being a creative solution-finder, spanning the breadth of IT - everything from support desk to architecture, including IT skills training and HR processes, or launching enterprise services from videoconferencing to next-gen API service-mesh integration. When others come to the table with a list of problems, I love finding a list of solutions, exploring the landscape, and finding the best solutions with the best outcomes for all involved. I sit on several corporate and non-profit advisory boards and have been involved in the development of numerous projects that have revolutionized services where deployed. I have a passion for volunteering and am driven to make the world a better place; focusing on non-profits and education, bringing my knowledge as a strategist and integrator to enable creative solutions.
