I am an architect with extensive strategic planning, design and hands-on delivery experience.  I have consistently had overall architecture responsibility for multimillion dollar modernization and transformation projects involving SOA, Cloud, Mobile, Big Data and various other leading edge technologies.

I have consistently worked on some of the CSC’s biggest and most technically challenging.  These projects have crossed numerous industries and technologies, each delivering successful outcomes and significant value to our clients. I am an accomplishment focused innovator who is equally comfortable with the business as well as technical aspects of the project life cycle. 

I have worked on the development of CSC’s cloud consulting service offerings including the Cloud Adoption Assessment which consists of a review of the client’s application portfolio and service management capabilities for possible migration to the cloud.  Other cloud service offering that I have been involved in have included cloud strategy, cloud architecture, proof of concepts development and application migration processes used to move workloads from legacy environments to new cloud environment.

I have been trained in CSC’s newly acquired hybrid cloud management tool, ServiceMesh Agility Platform.  This tool provides a Chef like cloud blue print development capability and a policy based multi cloud deployment and management capability. 

I have also worked on several IT strategic consulting engagements around how cloud, mobile and machine to machine technologies can be leveraged to expand business process into the mobile space.  These pursuits have also involved cloud, big data and integration into back end applications.

I have also designed and delivered solutions for complex distributed systems involving integrating various legacy and cloud based application. One of these involved a leading financial services firm where we replaced their entire messaging infrastructure with a SOA based fault tolerant solution. This solution has had zero system failures over its life time.

Other projects have included development of eCommerse B2B and trading exchange solutions for several dot com start-up firms. 

I have been involved in application, data and technical infrastructure architecture throughout my entire career and have set up several enterprise architecture and change management programs for clients.  I have consistently delivered highly integrated, high valued solutions that have met business.  I’ve worked effectively and developed close collaborative relationships with all levels within the organization I’ve been involved, developing win, win solutions that all groups can be proud of. I am well versed in numerous technologies and have a depth of experience that allows me to quickly analyze problems from multiple perspectives never loosing site of the business impact of those strategies.
