I am a technology leader piloting cost-effective solutions that enhance business operations and optimize performance, security, and reliability. As a trusted partner to the executive team, I analyze current IT requirements and future needs to provide clear data to enable decision making and development of strategies to protect the assets of the organization. Some of my career highlights include: - Laid scalable technology foundation and robust IT infrastructure to support rapid expansion encompassing 35 domestic/international locations, 4 distinct profit/nonprofit companies, and 2 acquisitions. - Championed early adoption of cloud and virtual environment. Eliminated hardware expenses, paid smaller monthly fees, and leveraged VDI/cloud services to support all systems. - Cut network hardware/maintenance costs implementing single network fabric with VLAN authentication. Moved to cloud firewalls and enabled secure wired/wireless connectivity to resources without interference. - Implemented paperless office system that streamlined Admissions and Financial Aid process, reduced printing and storage costs, and improved safety of essential documents. - Built top-performing 23-member team, mentoring staff and encouraging professional development designing online/classroom training covering emerging trends, rollouts, and refreshes.
