My Story

From Naval Special Warfare to the CIO’s Chair

A former U.S. Navy Special Warfare Electronics Technician turned Chief Information Officer, I’ve spent over two decades building secure, scalable systems for government agencies, small businesses, and a nationwide real-estate consultancy. I lead with operational precision, a mission-first focus, and a builder’s instinct for modernizing the systems people depend on.
