Results-oriented web professional with a successful track record directing all aspects of web operations, creative and technical design, administration and budgeting. I’m a visionary leader with a keen understanding of business priorities and a proven ability to build working teams that deliver on time and on budget.
I've been working in the software industry since 1999, managing web content, online information systems, and corporate design. I have experience managing both local and remote teams, working with agencies, and managing large projects and budgets.
