What I'm looking for

I’m seeking a full-time, fully remote or hybrid role in the Atlanta and Decatur, Georgia area as a Health IT Administrator, IAM, HRIS, Workday, Public Safety, or Senior Security Solutions Architect.

At ADRM, I administer security systems and coordinate projects, while supporting access control, video management, and compliance operations. I also manage vendor maintenance and system upgrades, and have experience with Genetec and CCure 9000.

At Penn Medicine, I managed video systems and supported enterprise security and conferencing projects, including a rollout of Genetec CCTV and badges. I bring hands-on experience across healthcare and public safety, with a focus on IAM, HRIS, and dependable back-end operations.
