With 100% percent focus during my entire professional career in the Information Systems and Technology fields, my experience is broad and covers many vertical markets. My primary focus for the past 10 years has been in Education Technology, however in my capacities as Manager, Director and CTO for various firms over the years I've excelled in the Media, Advertising, Sales, Interactivity, Home Video, and the Gambling industries among others. My management style is a mixture of Persuasive and Democratic, and I am an expert of both delegation and implementation. Given the amount of time spent in the technology and education fields I have made a tremendous number of very important connections with VAR's, ISP's, Integrators and Support services companies like APPLE, CISCO, DELL, LEXMARK, SAMSUNG, CDW, LENOVO, SHI, etc... These relationships allow me to quickly and efficiently reduce costs while improving services and delivery times for almost any technical project. My ability to manage large budgets, my people skills, as well as my ability to translate complex technical processes into language anyone can understand makes me a great asset to any employer.

Specialties: education technology implementation, PARCC, 1:1 deployments, team management, project management, E-Rate, purchasing, outsourcing, automation, software engineering, human interfaces, hardware design, web services, email, virtualization, MS Exchange, active directory, open directory, OS X, Windows, Linux, Unix, server architecture, wireless, security, video surveillance, PC and Mac Networking, etc...
