My work has always positioned me at the forefront of emergent technology and I have always found ways to continue to engage my entire toolbox. Keeping a honed skillset by participating in focused or limited one-off projects (of varying degrees of difficulty) makes me a quicker reactor, a better designer and implementer of strategic solutions and, overall, keeps me relevant in many industries.

Like most people, my early career was spent gathering technical experience across a few industries but, while my corporate experience was more focused on the Retail Supply Chain and I managed to find success in high-impact management roles, I also remained a very hands-on do-er and made sure to continuously build on that base, rather than delegate my way out of concepting and engaging with every level of a project.  

In practice, this means that, like most tech-savvy office workers, I can format and program advanced functionalities of most Microsoft, Google and Adobe products, but, that is just the tip of the iceberg. I can still maneuver most of the systems and processes that had me physically and logically, building both wired and wireless networks, building e-commerce and media driven websites, customizing enterprise technology, creating customer service solutions, designing retail supply chain system integrations and creating social media content and automations.

Ultimately, I am adept at intervening to remediate an issue and a pro at providing bridge solutions for so many kinds of projects. So, freelancing is an engaging way to remain, functionally, fluent in various forms of technology and a fantastic way to support my consulting work.

At this point in my career, I feel at my best when crafting a clear message, finding efficiencies and/or implementing best-practice techniques that help clients achieve maximum success while supporting a healthy work/life balance.
