Message

I've led public-sector digital transformation programs for the U.S. Space Force, InterImage, IBM, and PricewaterhouseCoopers, spanning commercial satellite communications, DoD, DHS, USAID, and state and local government systems.

At InterImage, I led a 130-person delivery organization supporting $25M in annual revenue, secured $41M in sole-source awards, and built a 20-person team and virtualized data-center environment for mission-critical legacy applications. I combine program operations, systems modernization, cybersecurity, Agile and DevSecOps delivery, and executive stakeholder leadership to move complex enterprise initiatives forward.
