About
Completing 20 years in the high op-tempo nature of the Naval Submarine workforce, I am dedicated to meeting the needs of the end-user and protecting the grid as well. Started as a tactical network system maintainer, then to an information systems network administrator on two different, medium-sized networks, operating without support on deployed submarines of over 150 end-users. Managed certification and accreditation, training development, and cybersecurity workforce requirements. Finally, as the top IT Manager of one of the most capable Atlantic Fleet Submarine Squadrons, coordinated upgrades, training, and qualifications of multiple divisions and departments.
