In my Role as the Director of Technology Services I manage the MAISD Technology Department, Lakeshore Technology Consortium(LTC) and the Shoreline Fiber Network(SFN).The LTC was created to provide technology leadership and support to those local school districts (LEA) that choose to become a member. The LTC is a new model for supporting districts as they integrate and advance their technology programs. The emphasis of the LTC team is the “operations and infrastructure” aspects of technology support. The LTC team is committed to planning, acquiring, deploying, and supporting the appropriate technologies for school districts in a unified, efficient, timely, and cost effective manner. The LTC team works closely with the District leadership team and staff, including contractors and vendors.

The Shoreline Fiber Network also connects all the K12 schools and colleges in Muskegon county. My responsibilities include management and long-range planning for the MAISD Data Center, including management and coordination of the Shoretel VOIP phone system utilized by the MAISD and its constituent districts.
