I've managed enterprise telecom implementations at Telesystem, leading 80+ concurrent multi-location voice and data projects nationwide from kickoff through final delivery. I coordinate sales, carriers, customers, engineers, and technicians across VoIP, SD-WAN, SIP trunks, MS Teams, firewalls, cybersecurity, and circuit provisioning.

I led conversion and decommissioning work that saved nearly $2 million, consistently met or exceeded monthly revenue forecasts with a 98% rating, and helped reduce time to revenue by two weeks. Across Helm Partners and Broadview Networks, I've delivered high-volume telecom projects, built long-term client relationships, and supported cross-functional training and workflow improvements.
