PROFILE
I am a senior project manager responsible for the scheduling and management of large, complex, strategic and technical projects. I possess nineteen years of project management experience and have developed into an expert in project management methodologies and Microsoft Project integration. Having worked twenty years as a chief information officer in technology infrastructure, software, systems and communications development my breadth of experience has exposed me to diverse, enterprise level systems and projects many involving the replacement or upgrade of legacy environments and infrastructures.
This while managing both portfolio and program level deployments and schedules from conception to completion. These experiences have provided me with a strong working knowledge of Information Technology Infrastructure, Networking / Communications, Integrated Systems Libraries, Content Types, Document Sets and Meta Data. I truly believe that responsibility is a mark of distinction and has made me a much more focused, intellectual and productive individual.
