PROFILE

Repaying **+ years of failures and successes in large-scale deployments, market transformations, industry alignment and business development. Through failure I’ve accumulated an invaluable amount of “lessons learned” to which is the basis of my success in building and leading top performing global teams, directing programs expanding technology platforms into the vertical markets. I excel in redefining company goals through analysis and restructuring in the pursuit of new company enriched revenue sources. I envision myself as an expert in the application of technological programs as applied horizontally to the vertical industries. As with time, I have accumulated numerous contacts throughout the vertical markets and can educate others on the pace of technology deployment needs in those industries.
