About

Having worked my way up the technical ladder, from a Software Developer to a team leader to a Pre-Sales Engineer and Software based Solutions Architect then one with Consultant status and now at the CTO/CIO/CSO analog for partners, I've managed to acquire a well rounded and very rich understanding of the full cycle of sales, development, implementation and post-sales as they pertain to the software industry. This has been seasoned through interaction with many companies, in varied sectors such as the Oil & gas, Financial, Telecommunications and Government sectors on a regional scale. I am seeking a challenging, satisfying and rewarding career where I can focus my technical and sales background in a Director/CTO type position. This intermarriage of technical and people skills plays on my strong points.
