What I'm looking for

I'm looking for a role that supports 100% remote work.

At CITY OF LEON VALLEY, I directed IT operations, including budget planning, project management, and help desk functions. I also spearheaded a city-wide mobile computing transition to enhance service efficiency and remote operational capacity.

At CAMINO REAL COMMUNITY SERVICES, I led a cross-functional technology team and delivered LAN-WAN projects and cloud services. I designed and delivered VoIP and Windows Server training programs for staff.

At TMI EPISCOPAL, I architected and deployed a remote instruction model before the COVID-19 stay-at-home orders. I also migrated legacy communications to Google for Education, while at HIPDINGO, LLC I oversaw technology systems across multiple locations.
