Professional Summary
I am a hardware and software engineer with extensive hands-on experience with most contemporary information technologies, creating and managing, and individually contributing to complex and difficult projects. I am comfortable with high degrees of uncertainty and risk. My passion is information technology, and I make it my business to know what’s new and improved, what isn’t, and where it fits in.
Management Summary
I have managed and been an individual contributor in several information technology disciplines, and understand their cultures, values, and needs. I am experienced in creating, managing, and mentoring a diverse range of teams of individuals responsible for functions including configuration management, customer relationship management (CRM), databases (DBA), enterprise resource planning (ERP), product integration and evaluation, server and workstation upgrades, resilient network design and deployment, software development, systems administration, systems test, technical publications, virtual machine deployment, and Web development.
Successfully communicating with stakeholders is vital for project success. My communication style is open and transparent. I highlight both successes and issues, and work with others on resolving problems as they are discovered.
