Boasting twenty years' experience in IT, I have expertise in needs analysis, building client trust and continually improving operations. Frequently cited as "unique" among others with my background, my interpersonal and communications skills are top-notch -- I have friends in every crowd. I am experienced in network architecture, security, and management, including wireless, telephony, routing, and switching. I was previously certified CCNP and presently hold a current CCNA. I am pursuing professional recertification, with plans to complete both the CCDP and CCIE certifications as well. I am intuitive and insightful, often identifying challenges, perspectives and opportunities overlooked by others. A proven leader, I understand the difference between leadership and merely managing people, and I have a gift for generating team synergy. Throughout my career I was rapidly promoted to higher levels of responsibility and corporate representation. I am a proud veteran of the military, discharged under honorable conditions after serving in support of Operation Desert Storm.
