About

I've spent my entire career, 30+ years now, helping corporations leverage technology to improve their business. This stems from my life long passion for problem solving and helping make people's life easier. I believe that technology, when leveraged in a well conceived way as well as at proper scale, can be the difference between a successful business and one that struggle or fails. I've had the opportunity to work directly with some of the largest companies on the planet while representing some of the great technology companies of our time including Microsoft, VMware, Amazon Web Services, and Google. If you share my passion for solving problems and enabling successful business, definitely connect with me here.
