About My day to day is ensuring uptime and security while working within scope of PCI, SOC, and ISO compliance.

I have personally built multiple AI tools that are used to streamline and perform functions that would normally require several dedicated resources. I oversee several Tier III Datacenters and IaaS, PaaS locations. We recently migrated our brick-and-mortar locations to SDWAN (VeloCloud) using an Internet and MPLS blend. During COVID me and my team helped build a Secure Remote Worker solution for thousands of Work @ Home employees that we never had before.

I am responsible for creating proprietary 2FA and GEO Fencing technologies that ensure the security and location of our remote workers. I have enjoyed providing solutions and strong leadership to exceed the future needs of TLC Associates.
