My projects have been global in scope, achieved billions of dollars in cost savings, modernized manufacturing operations, and brought life-saving drugs to market. A customer-facing technologist, I have worked with clients across North America and Asia, designed and delivered C-Level informational sessions, determined corporate-wide hardware and software requirements, and negotiated product acquisition contracts and VAR agreements. As a team leader, I have led large multi-disciplinary divisions, mid-size local, regional, and international departments, and small “surgical strike” tiger teams. My unique blend of experience affords me big picture vision, the ability to do low level deep dives, and virtually everything in between.
