I design and build SharePoint solutions for business needs. I also design, build, and maintain the architecture needed for SharePoint 2010 and 2013 environments along with Project Server. I also create InfoPath forms, Visio diagrams, and workflows for the automated processing of content.

Jacksonville, Florida Area

I was previously contracted to BCBSFL in Jacksonville as a SharePoint designer and administrator. Projects involved the migration of legacy web pages to SharePoint 2007 while maintaining the portability to Sharepoint 2010. Several other project teams that included: Supporting the SharePoint server farm administrators on developing solutions for SharePoint and SSRS reporting for PeopleSoft, the installation and configuration of Excel Services, the governance of Site Content Management. However, the most important function was training administrative staff about the core competencies of SharePoint and how to leverage them with their daily tasks.

I've lead several ERP migrations. Most recently I've been the project manager for the implementation of Microsoft SharePoint as the primary communication and collaboration tool used by both the USMC and their contractors. I also manage the lifespan of all custom applications in regards to their design, development, documentation, roll-out, and training. In addition, my role as the SQL DBA for the USMC and Honeywell has greatly increase my project management and design skills, while gaining me extensive knowledge in data mining, reporting, and performance analysis of applications and databases.

While managing and migrating three ERP systems, I was also the SQL DBA, BSA, and SharePoint Administrator/Designer
