About
As a long-time IT professional, I have experience in all areas of technology, including hardware and software implementation and support, enterprise network design and security, cybersecurity, web development and security, and strategic planning and budgeting. I have a passion for learning about new and emerging technology and applying new technology to solve business needs and explore opportunities. I am a quick learner, great communicator, able to think quickly and act quickly, and love to think “outside the box” to find successful solutions. I am a self starter, as most of my projects are ones that I have initiated. I pay close attention to detail, and am always looking for small improvements to make to existing processes. I have a solid foundation of how to communicate effectively with individuals of all technical and organizational levels. In my experience developing web sites, I have learned how to process information that is understood on an organizational level into information that is easily consumed by the end user.
With over two decades of experience, I have advanced knowledge of how organizations work, how to maximize the potential of my staff, how to keep projects moving, and leading group projects to successful outcomes. I have a can-do attitude, believe all things are possible, and my aim each and every day is to make a difference in the organization.
