Profile

I have more than 25 years of business experience managing small

companies averaging 5 to 10 million dollars annual revenue, in

addition to my experience as an executive level manager of a company

whose annual revenues exceeded 100 million dollars. My skillful

leadership, project management, and team-building enable me to deliver

productive and profitable technological solutions. I attribute much of

this success to my comprehensive technical knowledge of the

Information Technology industry providing me the ability to design,

develop and implement technical solutions for complex projects.

Experience

LS Technologies, LLC Fairfax, Virginia

2009 - Present

Project Manager/LST Program Manager

My technical and managerial experience combined with an in-depth

expertise in all aspects of business application life cycles have

enabled me to save the Aviation Weather Center (AWC) 25 percent on the

overall cost of the IT architecture through tight integration into the

weather service's Internet architecture, while working to build a

compelling business case with management and NWS headquarters. We

accomplished this by the successful completion of the CAWS web

project; previously the AWC was not able to successfully complete this

work. This project provides the AWC with new funding sources from the

FAA. It will also allow the AWC to grow its web services because they

are now one of a few FAA QICP Certified government web sites. My

skills in project management, analysis, design, programming, and

training allowed me to complete this project on time and within

budget. The NWS acknowledged my contributions by selecting me NOAA

Team Member of the Month for September 2010. I have managed and made

significant technical contributions to the following AWC projects:

. The Consolidated Aviation Web Services (CAWS) web farms

(www.aviationweather.gov).

. The new web enabled International Flight Folder Document Program

(WebIFFDP).

. The Washington World Area Forecast Center (WAFC) Internet

replacement for the International Satellite Communications

System (ISCS) supporting the World Area Forecast System (WAFS)

named the WAFS Internet Files Services (WIFS).

. The design, development and implementation of the

infrastructure and programming changes required to meet the FAA

QICP Certification.

. The integration of the AWC web services into the NOAA WOC web

farms.

. The selection and implementation of the PHP ZEND Framework which

utilizes state of the art object oriented coding patterns and

principals.

Document Program (IFFDP) FAX system. The AWC management recognized my

project management skills and requested I begin the eQICP Project.

This is an important and highly visible project enabling the AWC to

became the eQICP Project Manager and wrote the project management plan

including writing several agreements between related government

agencies. AWC management boasts the eQICP Project Plan is the most

successful project they have seen in their careers. This project

includes combining all the current AWC web sites into a collective

referred to as the Consolidated Aviation Web Services (CAWS). In

addition I provide maintenance for the IFFDP Fax system while creating

project documentation and planning for future development of the AWC

IFFDP web enabled capability.
