OBJECTIVE:
As a senior technologist for computer systems, I have provided
Program and Project Management and led high level technical teams. I
am most successful when I combine management with technology
leadership in solving "hard" problems by generating and
delivering creative technical solutions. I have successfully built
systems from proposal generation to requirements elicitation through
supporting deployed prototypes in the field
My experience has
been successful in covering a gamut of roles from successfully
preparing proposals totaling over $50 million awarded by the
intelligence community, as well as the US and foreign military. Upon
award, I have acted to manage the projects and programs to successful
technical and business conclusions. I have led successful teams in
diverse areas including computer graphics and visualization for
military and intelligence missions; High Performance Computing in
support of SIGINT; simulation and virtual reality for training;, and,
research across the computer science spectrum.
I can bring this level of achievement to support my new employer’s business success.
