Well over 20 years in high tech industry. Owned and operated small technology companies, hardware, software, and online services. I have consulted Fortune 50/500 as well as start-ups - well-funded as well as on a shoe-string budget. Spent 7yrs at Microsoft building a security operations team from ground up and a strategic advisor to GM on all things related to compliance, security and privacy. Continuing in Governance, Risk and Compliance, I spent time with Walt Disney and couple years at T-Mobile.

Back in 2001 I co-founded a not-for-profit (http://www.OutreachConnect.org) lending my experience to help further the global sector for CTLCs (Computer Technology & Learning Centers). We put forth a model, design, and system for implementation and management of these centers strategically placed in low-income multi-family residential communities. Drove the costs down, while driving the availability of leading and cutting edge technologies and services UP where historically it was the government entities end-of-life hardware and software that made up the technology experience found within these settings. OCG maintains a tax-exempt 501c3 status with the internal revenue service.

Early in my career I spent time in sales, marketing and business development. As well at 25 I represented a pre-IPO local start-up as WAN ENGINEERING and Internet Services Manager, and token CTO responsibilities, and was a guest of a small number of Wall Street analysts/firms on a weekly basis to update them on technology landscape and what to watch and what should be taken down a notch. Answering questions regularily around MCI Worldcomm, AT&T, QWEST, Level 3, KCM, Burlington Northern and many others in the space of cable and backbone provisioners and providers as well as content delivery and mass storage.Specializing in high-payload traffic delivery and mission critical applications.
