Career Profile

An early interest in computer security got me hooked on programming. Though I’ve never lost my interest in security, it has evolved into a more general passion for thinking about problems from both a systems perspective and a people perspective. Over my career, I’ve learned to apply that strategy in general IT, healthcare IT, software development, and architecture roles.
