As a professional with a background in engineering and business ownership, I understand the importance of evaluating individual parts of a business within the context of the whole. I believe that information technology is not an isolated entity and must be considered in relation to the entire organization.Having worked in commerce systems, I recognize the critical role that accounting plays in business. While I am not an accounting expert, I have a strong grasp of GAAP and cash flow management, and I understand the different perspectives of salespeople and accountants.With a deep understanding of security and its trade-offs, I know how to balance convenience and safety to create a positive experience for employees and customers.I am well-versed in lean manufacturing concepts and have successfully applied them to businesses without traditional manufacturing. I am skilled in continuous improvement and problem-solving, and I know how to ship incremental improvements.My expertise in network design and implementation spans multiple layers, from physical to application. I have a comprehensive understanding of TCP/IP from the perspectives of hackers, developers, and network engineers.I embody the fundamentals of industriousness, enthusiasm, and initiative, and I take responsibility for my work and that of my team. I am passionate about learning and strive to apply my knowledge to create meaningful action.Mentoring and team leadership are key aspects of my leadership style.
