About

I am a dedicated, passionate, and curious ERP and IT Consultant. My roles have spanned from client-facing technical team lead, project manager, to client/developer liaison. With over a decade of experience, I am widely regarded by colleagues and management as a go-to subject matter expert and a key contributor who can be counted on to deliver on tight schedules. The several long-term personal clients I serve and the strong professional relationships I have built are testaments to my professional integrity, business and technical skillset, and team comradery.
