What I'm looking for

I am looking for a leadership role where I can drive secure cloud modernization and program excellence. Ideally this would be remote or hybrid, with a focus on delivering measurable impact, innovation, and mission success.

I am a Technical Program Manager and PMP with 10+ years leading large-scale cloud, infrastructure, and security modernization programs for government and commercial customers. I bring clarity to ambiguity, turning strategy into execution by aligning engineering, security, and compliance teams to deliver scalable, reliable, and automated systems under tight timelines.

My background includes directing enterprise IT operations, incident response, ATO/accreditation efforts, and building DevOps/DevSecOps organizations that improved customer satisfaction, reduced risk exposure, and grew revenue. I am results-oriented, experienced with IaC, Terraform, containerization, zero trust principles, and federal compliance frameworks, and I focus on measurable program delivery and continuous operational improvement.
