In 2022, my amazing wife started an independent Asian Market in Maryville, TN which has been a dream of hers since immigrating to the US from Indonesia in 1999. I had an opportunity to devote a year of my time to invest in our business to accelerate growth, lower costs and establish a firm foundation with distribution and operations on an interim basis. Initiatives included:Establishing relationships with several additional international food distributors to expand our selectionImplementing inventory, barcoding, and data management systemsEngaging in social media and advertising campaigns leveraging an outside firmDeveloping operational processes and aligning with industry standardsAs we complete these initiatives, we have seen significant cost reductions as well as roughly 40% increase in revenue year over year. We have accomplished great things in the last year, and at this point are in a position to build on our footing as I return to the technology field.

While in this role at Deloitte, I was responsible for the successful effort to migrate our large on-prem infrastructure to the cloud, specifically Microsoft Azure. During this effort, I was also managing daily operations with a team of over 30 people in multiple geographies. Cloud migrations offer several challenges, and we leveraged multiple teams to address enterprise needs such as modernization, high availability, security compliance, ransomware planning, and cost control to name a few. Additional responsibilities involved managing our working relationships with multiple business units and partners at the firm. The structure of our group was that of an internal IT service provider to these various BUs. Client success and end user customer experience were paramount while managing costs and planning for long term technology goals. I worked with the various BUs to streamline, plan and implement the modernization of their environments as we migrated to the cloud, while maintaining service levels and operations.
