What I'm looking for

I seek project coordination roles where I can manage end-to-end projects, mentor teams, optimize vendor relationships, and drive reliable first-day service and customer satisfaction.

I am an IT professional with over twenty years of experience delivering system implementations, project coordination, and end-user onboarding in telecommunications and UCaaS/SaaS environments.

Throughout my career I have managed large-scale telecommunications projects across hospitality, healthcare, government, education, and manufacturing sectors, completing over 500 installs and serving as the primary point of contact for stakeholders, sales, and operations.

I excel at identifying system and project requirements, coordinating resources, facilitating programming and cutover activities, and delivering hands-on training to ensure first-day readiness and timely project closeout.

My background includes contract and vendor management, procurement and invoice audit (resulting in quantified savings), IT purchasing oversight, and prior military service as a Staff Sergeant Cryptologic Linguist with a Top Secret/SCI clearance (inactive).
