What motivates you? With a knack for problem solving and a passion for leadership, new challenges keep the fire burning in me. I’ve been leading transformative technology initiatives for over 20 years as an operational strategist. Connecting with people at all levels to drive IT goals is one of the reasons I’ve been able to build a dynamic career increasing company efficiencies, reducing costs, maintaining financial goals and delivering complex project requirements on time. Some of my accomplishments at my most recent role includes: Establishing the technology infrastructure corporate-wide by working with executives, department heads and end-users to define the governance processes of architecture, telecommunications, networks, programming, media and desktops. Pioneering the data and voice systems upgrade for 17 offices into a fully meshed and redundant MPLS network. The initiative eliminated downtime (with multiple circuits assigned to each office) and captured $90K per year in savings. Coordinating and overseeing the migration of a 1000-user exchange environment to the cloud-based productivity suite, G Suite. I am recognized as a creative and strong analytical professional with an ability to lead and adapt in changing environments. I am searching for my next opportunity to continue building and developing IT teams and infrastructures. In my free time I enjoy yoga, swimming, museums, reading and outdoor activities.
