I’m a technologist who makes IT endeavors successful. My strengths are in project management and resourcing, technical architecture and algorithm design, buy vs. build analysis, composing product stories, and telling those product stories through demos. I act as a consultant to firms of all sizes who need new products/projects created or have existing products/projects that need to be shepherded to the next level. I thrive on helping a business define and refine their business problems and market opportunities and then executing a plan to meet that need. I have a deep understanding of information technology and its many layers and am an experienced team builder and process implementer. From basic computer science, including published works in prestigious software development journals, to successful, global systems implementation, I have the background knowledge and experience to make technology driven businesses successful. I founded a successful startup in 2000 and sold it in 2005. Prior to that, I was a chief architect for the Enterprise Shared Services team with UnumProvident, the worldwide leader in disability insurance.
