Key business responsibilities

My professional experience has spanned over a decade of C-level management (in small start-up environments), product development, management consulting, team building and IT architecture development. I consider myself to be "a mile wide and a mile deep." Each week, I devote at least 20 hours to continuous learning about subjects in which I hold a dear interest.

I am now seeking a new position that will leverage my talents and previous abilities to help expand the barriers of what technology and human endeavor can accomplish together.

FACTS ABOUT ME:

* Unparalleled ability to analyze and plan for objectives that exceed operational or corporate objectives and goals.

* Outstanding ability to lead teams of individuals (either co-located or virtual) toward the completion of projects and programs that exceed customer expectations.

* Keen ability to work with individuals from multicultural backgrounds to ensure team unity and respect individual customs and culture.

* Noted “evangelical” speaker who can engage any audience on any subject.
