PROFESSIONAL SUMMARY:

In IT, I am the guy who makes things happen. In my world, there is often a big divide between what a customer says and what the customer really wants. My job is to bridge that gap and to meet the customers’ business, financial and IT goals against a backdrop of interconnected systems and networks, multiple resources, conflicting applications, compliance requirements and strict deadlines. I have spent the last 15 years of my career working in IT Project Manager where I orchestrate, execute and manage complex, multi - million-dollar IT projects for clients ranging from financial institutions to start ups. In a business environment where penalties for missed deadlines can cost the client tens of thousands of dollars per day, my management and problem solving skills are critical to the team’s success.
