From researching & architecting, to budgeting, presenting, & managing projects; I have over 20 years of IT experience in leadership, engineering, & business/organization focused solutions & service. I enjoy leading teams and also being hands on to humbly revolutionize & drastically improve all of IT to serve the business – applications & data, network & systems, security controls & standards, on-premise & cloud environments; all while utilizing data to drive superb service scalability, & optimized operations. I am passionate about delivering data driven solutions, automating & innovating, and adapting to serve the human element. I have thrived under high pressure and stressful situations. I have a deep understanding & empathy of what it takes/how to be successful in IT. I walk the walk and utilize experience to build & lead exceptional teams. I believe in enabling the right people in the right roles, noticing and rewarding effort, removing roadblocks, and coaching and training. Ultimately my mission is to serve the business and organization; to invest & sacrifice, to go above & beyond, and to ensure long term success of teams and companies. I have a strong track record of this - with references & recommendations from impressive people I’m blessed to have teamed with.
