IBMSenior Managing Consultant
Oct. 2014 - Mar. 2019GlobalI act as a sales and delivery firefighter to help lead global teams to customer success and satisfaction. Working with colleagues and customers on five continents, I've helped sell and deliver seven figure information security engagements in many industries, and in a variety of countries. Language barriers are something I'm extremely skilled at overcoming; one particular point of pride is when my Japanese team and customers told me that I'm the most patient westerner they've every worked with during engagement sales and delivery regarding language issues. While I've had many great experiences at IBM working cross-culturally, one of the most interesting has been while I was the Information Security Officer for the European Union Directorate General TAXUD (the customs and tax division of the EU.) I worked with hundreds of people from Poland, Romania, Greece, Belgium, Spain, Ukraine, and other countries with competing priorities and communications styles. Besides getting to partake in Belgian frites, having to haul back kilos of Leonidas chocolate for my family, and visiting many WWI sites throughout the area, it was one of the most rewarding experiences I've had. Even projects that are worth millions of Euro still depend on the people that are getting the job done. I pride myself in gaining the trust of my team, as well as the customer. I have the best interests of both at top of mind.
