Expertise

Technology leadership. Business strategy. Practical innovation.

I bring more than 30 years of experience connecting technology with business objectives across enterprise cybersecurity, international manufacturing, managed IT services, and emerging AI. I combine executive leadership, financial stewardship, and hands-on technical experience to solve meaningful business problems, improve operational performance, and deliver measurable value.

Applied AI & Intelligent Automation

I apply artificial intelligence to improve business operations, decision-making, and service delivery.

Experience & approach

My experience includes local large language models (LLMs), AI-assisted workflows, agentic and deterministic automation, model evaluation, and cross-platform orchestration.

I am particularly interested in hybrid architectures that combine local and cloud-based AI capabilities, balancing model performance, data privacy, operational requirements, and cost.

Successful AI adoption begins with identifying the right business problem, not choosing the most impressive technology.

Executive Leadership & Technology Strategy

I lead technical organizations and translate business objectives into actionable technology strategies.

Experience & approach

My experience spans organizational leadership, strategic planning, service delivery management, technology investment decisions, operational improvement, and executive-level collaboration.

I combine formal leadership education with practical experience developing teams, aligning technology initiatives with business goals, and navigating organizational change.

Cybersecurity, Governance & Risk Management

More than two decades of cybersecurity experience and a CISSP certification inform my strategic and operational approach to protecting business assets.

Experience & approach

My background includes virtual CISO advisory, cybersecurity program development, CIS Controls implementation, vulnerability management, security governance, and risk-based technology decision-making.

I approach cybersecurity as a business discipline, aligning security investments with organizational priorities, operational resilience, and acceptable risk.

Financial Stewardship & Operational Performance

I connect technology investments with financial performance through budget management, forecasting, procurement, and executive reporting.

Experience & approach

My experience includes CapEx and OpEx management, financial forecasting, procurement, revenue quality, operational reporting, and executive financial reviews.

At Constellium, I managed a $1.4 million information security budget involving U.S. dollar, euro, and franc-denominated expenditures.

I also have experience with enterprise financial platforms, including NetSuite, and translating operational data into information that supports executive decision-making.

Business Process Optimization & Systems Integration

I improve operational workflows by connecting people, processes, data, and technology.

Experience & approach

My experience includes professional services automation (PSA) and business-system integrations, service delivery automation, workflow orchestration, operational reporting, and process improvement.

I focus on reducing manual work, improving data consistency, strengthening operational controls, and enabling organizations to scale without introducing unnecessary complexity.

Enterprise Infrastructure & Technology Operations

My technical foundation spans enterprise networking, cloud infrastructure, virtualization, Linux environments, systems administration, and managed IT services.

Experience & approach

I remain actively involved in technical architecture, experimentation, and implementation.

That hands-on perspective helps me evaluate emerging technologies realistically and bridge the gap between executive strategy and engineering execution.

My approach

I believe the best technology leaders understand both the business and the systems supporting it. They know when to pursue innovation, when to improve an existing process, and when the simplest solution is the right one.

My goal is to connect strategic thinking with practical execution, helping organizations make informed decisions, manage risk, and achieve meaningful results.
