An astute manager, I can mentor and motivate my staff, hire top talent, and facilitate professional development to ensure we have the right skills and capabilities to develop, configure, implement, and optimize cloud and on-premises systems, infrastructure, and applications. I am also well-versed in driving cross-functional collaboration across technical and business teams to create a unified approach to achieving our shared goals.By working closely with business leaders, I can ensure the technology plan allows systems, platforms, and applications to evolve in alignment with overarching goals. I excel at building relationships with key stakeholders to position the technology and engineering organization as a trusted resource in developing solutions that improve enterprise-wide performance and productivity. In addition, I am highly adept at managing capital & operating budgets, controlling expenses, and negotiating with vendors to implement best-in-class solutions while maintaining cost efficiencies.
