Professional Summary

My project management skills were honed through the end-to-end management of critical IT system integrations following major acquisitions, where I ensured seamless data migration, system compatibility, and minimal downtime. I have a proven track record in deploying technologies such as NetApp storage solutions, Exchange Server, Active Directory, and cloud computing platforms like Azure and Office365, which have been pivotal in meeting and exceeding operational requirements and objectives.

As an Information Systems Engineer with extensive experience spanning over a decade, I have developed a deep expertise in designing, implementing, and managing intricate IT systems, with a particular focus on navigating the challenges and opportunities presented by Mergers and Acquisitions (M&A). My career is marked by successful leadership in high-stakes projects, including system integrations, deployments of enterprise-level management tools like SCCM and SCOM, and comprehensive network infrastructure optimizations, all aimed at driving efficiency, reducing costs, and enhancing system performance.

I am particularly proud of my strategic role in upgrading and reallocating data circuits across corporate networks, achieving significant cost savings and increased data redundancy through meticulous planning, vendor coordination, and technical execution. My technical arsenal also includes proficiency in optimizing bandwidth with tools like Riverbed, enhancing end-user support across Windows environments, and deploying remote support capabilities via Cisco VPN, ensuring robust, scalable, and secure IT infrastructure.

Innovation is at the core of my approach, demonstrated by the company-wide deployment of a self-service password reset tool, which significantly reduced IT helpdesk tickets and saved hundreds of man-hours. This initiative is a testament to my commitment to leveraging technology to enhance operational efficiency and user experience.
