I build IT organizations. From the ground up, to restructuring, through mergers and acquisitions, or taking an organization to the next level. I leverage an extensive background and life experiences shaped from being in the trenches of people and technology for over 30 years. It includes customer service, application and product development, infrastructure, project management, security, compliance, and more. I implement proven and practiced IT business models to create and refine operational consistency, success, and reliability. IT has become one of the largest and all reaching departments in companies today. This misunderstood black-box organization requires the right people, processes and structure, combined with positive leadership, to deliver real customer service with an elegant touch.
