For more than 15 years, I’ve built a career inside the heart of IT infrastructure. Designing systems, evaluating technologies, managing MSPs and vendors, and guiding organizations through complex technical decisions with clarity and confidence.

My background spans enterprise cloud, virtualization, networking, security, storage, backup/DR, multi-site operations, and MSP/vendor management. I’ve supervised technical teams, led high-impact projects, advised executives, and served as the primary technical authority for initiatives that shaped entire organizations.

But the real through-line in my career isn’t just technology.
It’s trust.
It’s the ability to connect people, simplify complexity, and help stakeholders make decisions that feel both technically sound and strategically right.

Over the years, I became the person leadership called when they needed:

• A clear explanation of competing solutions
   
• A trusted advisor in high-stakes vendor decisions
   
• Someone to translate technical detail into business clarity
   
• A steady communicator for cross-department projects
   
• A calm, persuasive presence during uncertain decisions
   

This blend of technical fluency and human connection naturally shaped how I operate today.

My experience has taught me that the most influential people in technology are not the loudest or the most decorated, they’re the ones who can walk into a room with engineers, executives, and vendors and make everyone feel aligned, understood, and confident.

That has always been my strength:

Deep hands-on experience with infrastructure, cloud, security, MSP operations, and vendor ecosystems.

Explaining complex ideas simply, without losing nuance.

Building trust with internal teams, vendors, MSPs, and leadership.

Seeing the bigger picture: cost, risk, scalability, ROI, and long-term impact.

Guiding decisions by making people feel informed, not sold to.

These qualities are rare in engineering, but they are foundational in partnerships, sales, and ecosystem strategy. People want to follow someone they trust. And trust is built on clarity, honesty, and competence.

• Primary technical advisor for a $750M construction project Coordinated with architects, contractors, leadership, and vendors to align complex technical requirements with business goals.
• Delivered more than $1.1M in cost optimization Proved that the right technology choices save money and increase operational stability.
• Guided a $450k+ infrastructure transformation Presented a VMware-based strategy that earned immediate VP approval over competing MSP proposals, demonstrating influence, clarity, and executive trust.
• Led multi-site technical operations during critical transitions Oversaw vendor collaboration, cross-team alignment, project planning, and smooth execution.
• Driven cloud, virtualization, security, and DR modernization Experience that gives me a 360° understanding of what MSPs and vendors actually deliver — and what customers truly need.

These achievements weren’t about hardware, software, or ticket queues.
They were about people, strategy, and making decisions that mattered.

Today, I operate as an independent consultant focused on helping organizations and partners navigate complex technology decisions with clarity, confidence, and honesty.

My role often includes:

• helping clients evaluate vendors
   
• improving MSP engagement
   
• advising on cloud and infrastructure strategy
   
• simplifying decisions for leadership
   
• bridging technical and business perspectives
   
• guiding projects across internal teams and partner ecosystems
   

Clients and colleagues consistently describe my work the same way:

• calm
   
• clear
   
• trustworthy
   
• technically respected
   
• strategically grounded
   
• easy to work with
   
• naturally persuasive
   

These aren’t “sales traits.”
They’re human traits that make technology partnerships actually work.

I believe the most valuable people in technology are the ones who can do two things exceptionally well:

1. Understand the technical truth
    
2. Communicate it in a way that builds confidence, reduces friction, and earns trust
    

That’s what I’ve built my career on.

And whether I’m advising executives, collaborating with MSPs, evaluating solutions, or guiding organizations through high-stakes decisions, that balance of technical depth and human connection is what I bring to every conversation.
