➥ In order to excel in today’s competitive business environment, a successful IT leader needs a balance of project management, security, and systems engineering expertise - backed by robust leadership skills. I combine over 2 decades’ experience leading world class teams of infrastructure engineers to optimize core IT systems and operations; making the forward-looking decisions that drive sustainable and scalable business growth; developing holistic and scalable IT roadmaps that improve organizational productivity; and carefully shaping the processes and systems that sustain an efficient, productive, and globally competitive organization.➥ I excel at identifying and remediating gaps in systems security, managing and mitigating internal/external risk, integrating state-of-the art tools and software in line with organizational needs, and shaping top-tier teams at the forefront of innovation and IT proficiency.➥ I am a proficient multitasker with the ability to learn, unlearn, and relearn; because success is less about what you already know and more about expanding your knowledge base. I have the agility to pick up new skills, adapt them to my needs, and respond to challenges with competence and conviction.➥ I have the communication skills to clearly articulate my vision, persuade people to take action, and get the ball rolling in the right direction. Whether I’m sending out emails, communicating with a partner, negotiating with a vendor, or anything in between; I communicate quickly, accurately and effectively.☛ Key Skills ☚ ✦ IT Strategy Formulation/Execution✦ IT Implementations/Infrastructure✦ Solutions & Process Engineering✦ Troubleshooting & Problem Solving✦ Cost Containment Strategies✦ Network Security/Disaster Recovery✦ Process Improvement & Optimization✦ Change Management Initiatives✦ Project Management & Oversight✦ Top-Tier Communicator & Negotiator✦ Relationship & Vendor Management✦ Risk Management & Mitigation
