Over the course of three decades, I’ve held multiple roles in the IT departments of midsize to large organizations: programmer, business analyst, tester, database administrator, solution architect, data architect, enterprise architect, systems integrator.  I also held several IT management positions, leading teams of IT architects in insurance, travel and transportation, telecommunications and banking.  As an IT project management professional, I delivered projects of all kinds and oversaw the implementation and continuous improvement of project management offices.  As a consultant, I help my customers implement governance mechanisms to improve communications, quality or control and I made several organizational assessments of their IT architecture capability.

I hold a bachelor’s degree in management information systems and a research-oriented master’s in business administration. I’ve been a certified project management professional (PMP)^© for sixteen years.
