About
I'm a cloud and technology leader with over 20 years of experience building and delivering innovative solutions across industries. I'm focused on helping organizations navigate digital transformation journeys through strategic consulting and thought leadership.
My Background
Most recently, I was a Principal Technical Program Manager at Microsoft, leading strategic quality initiatives across the Azure platform. My career path has taken me through various technical and leadership roles - from hands-on software engineering and cloud architecture to program management and team leadership.
My technical expertise spans cloud platforms (particularly Azure), Kubernetes, data management, and modern application development. I've worked with organizations of all sizes, from startups to Fortune 500 companies, helping them solve complex technical challenges and achieve their business goals.
What Drives Me
I'm passionate about bridging the gap between technology and business value. I've focused on implementing solutions and ensuring they deliver meaningful results throughout my career. This means understanding the broader business context, collaborating across diverse teams, and relentlessly focusing on quality and user experience.
I believe in sharing knowledge and building communities. This commitment has led me to speak at technical conferences, contribute to publications (including authoring a chapter in "Pro SQL Server 2012 Practices"), and actively participate in professional networks like the SQL Server User Group.
My Approach
My approach combines technical depth with practical business sense. I focus on:
- Breaking down complex problems into manageable solutions
- Bridging the gap between technical teams and business stakeholders
- Building scalable systems that adapt to changing needs
- Developing technical talent through mentorship and knowledge sharing
What's Next
I'm exploring new opportunities to apply my expertise in cloud architecture, program management, and technical leadership. I'm particularly interested in projects and organizations that use technology to innovate while focusing on quality and business outcomes.
I'm also continuing my education at Harvard Extension School, pursuing a Master's in Management to complement my technical background with more profound business knowledge.
