I lead Oracle Cloud transformations for public-sector and enterprise clients.
What I'm looking for
I've led Oracle Cloud transformations at KPMG, including public-sector rapid-delivery solutions and multi-million-dollar engagements across ERP, HCM, SCM, EPM, and OCI.
For the State of Nebraska, I managed the Oracle Cloud implementation of Finance, Projects, and HCM, designing a streamlined financial solution for statewide reporting. I also served as technical architect for a retail supply-chain organization with more than 250 integrations and led the successful Jacksonville Transportation Authority Oracle implementation, which received an AMCF award.
Before KPMG, I led Oracle practices at Zanett Commercial Solutions and co-founded DataRoad, where I grew a consulting firm, managed its financial operations, and established offshore managed services teams in the Philippines and India.
My foundation combines Oracle implementation leadership with hands-on engineering experience in enterprise systems, FORTRAN, Oracle RDBMS, and technical analysis for aerospace, defense, and nuclear-power organizations.
