      IT Leadership Professional

      Hi, I am an experienced IT Professional who is seeking opportunities for new career challenges. As you may notice in my resume, I am currently located in Arizona, but I am ready and willing to relocate myself for the right opportunity. My end goal is to affiliate myself with a company where I can drive IT solutions to the financial prosperity of the organization. What can I provide that other candidates cannot? Over my long career I have been directly involved in rapid growth FinTech organizations. This has allowed me to develop the skills to find solutions to business needs as they arise, or in many cases in advance. If given the opportunity, I will provide short- and long-term strategic road maps that will focus on driving down cost, increasing efficiency, and stability for the customers leveraging the right technical solution. I possess a wealth of systems administration technical experience coupled with leadership skills which can surely provide value to your organization. Please allow me the opportunity to meet with you to discuss your specific needs and how I can provide value to your long-term success. Show less
