I am a technology business development professional with extensive experience in direct front-line and leadership client engagements, specializing in IT solutions, coupled with strategic and tactical problem-solving skills. My technical and leadership foundation was built in the United States Air Force (#USAF), and I further honed my Sales, Information Technology, Business Development, and Account Management expertise through various roles with industry leaders like Electronic Data Systems (EDS), MCI Telecommunications, QWEST Communications, PAETEC, RealCom Solutions, and Bridgepointe Technologies (acquired RealCom). Throughout my career, I have successfully engaged with and supported numerous national and global clients across major vertical markets. My extensive career in technology has granted me the unique perspective of being both a customer, a vendor partner and client technology advisor. I have consistently demonstrated that successful relationships require knowledge of business, a strong sense of urgency, integrity, practical product and technical knowledge, availability, transparency, sincerity, coupled with a deep understanding of core IT and business challenges. My expertise lies in proactively crafting solutions to avoid issues stemming from constraints in time, failed vendor practices, resources, or funding. By leveraging my extensive experience, I champion client interests to forge lasting, mutually beneficial relationships with their Tech, IT, and Telecom providers.
