I am a well-rounded, seasoned technology professional seeking to return to the source of my IT joy. Over the years, I have grown from a junior web programmer to the leader of the information technology department of a $15M non-profit healthcare organization, tackling many challenges while gaining broad experience. I aim to apply my wisdom, talents, and creativity in a more focused direction.
