Summary

With over 35 years of experience in IT, including more than 18 years in the enterprise environment and my interest in new technologies, I enjoy supporting my clients in IT projects, preferably in the cross-functional role as an IT Architect.

From creating an IT strategy/roadmap to detailed concept designs and supporting their implementation, from analysis to overseeing the execution.
