I have worked with D365 and all previous versions starting with 3.0 in the areas of Manufacturing, Purchasing, Warehousing and Financials to include costing. I am a Functional Microsoft Dynamics Consultant and am Certified in Microsoft Dynamics AX Financials 2012, Trade and Logistics 2012 and Production 2009. I have managed projects and I am a strong advocate of Best Practices and Change Management.

I am adept at finding solutions and fixing issues before, during and after the implementation process. I use various tools such as; Microsoft Sure Step Methodology, SDLC, Smart Sheet, Jira and Agile.

I work very well with others and firmly believe that the team concept is the way to run a successful business. I am a person who thrives on a challenge, applies a hands-on approach to my work, and am cheerful, outgoing and dedicated to accomplishing Company objectives.
