As the Chief Enterprise Architect and Head of Enterprise Foundation Services in the Office of the CTO at AMCS Group, I steer the technological future of a global leader in cloud software, vehicle, and scaling technology for the environmental, waste, recycling, transportation, fintech, EHSQ, and ESG industries. AMCS Group is a leader in Performance Sustainability. My journey from VP of Professional Services in North America to this pivotal role exemplifies my commitment to driving strategic growth, operational excellence, and technological innovation. I lead our Enterprise Architecture, DevOps, DevSecOps, and Global Engineering teams, focusing on advancing AI, data science, and sustainable tech solutions to maintain AMCS at the industry's forefront.
Parallel to my role at AMCS, I contribute as a Professor at Jacksonville University, sharing insights from over 25 years in technology and leadership with the next generation of IT professionals. My involvement on the Jacksonville University Cybersecurity and Computer Science Industry Advisory Board underscores my dedication to shaping resilient and innovative technological frameworks in education and beyond.
My book with Forbes, "People, Places, and Things - A Framework for a Pain-Free ERP Implementation," distills my expertise into actionable strategies for businesses navigating ERP system rollouts. This work embodies my passion for facilitating successful digital transformations, leveraging my extensive experience in business development, solutions engineering, and strategic planning.
Complementing my book, PersonPlus.AI provides digital assets, private forums, public blogs, and direct consulting for businesses that need guidance on rolling out their next-generation ERP system.
Holding a Master of Computer Science and Mobile Technology from Full Sail University, pursuing an MBA from Quantic, and pursuing a Ph.D. in Computer Science from Northcentral University, my academic achievements underpin a career dedicated to innovation, integration, and collaboration. As a Forbes Council | Technology member, Forbes Select Author, professor, and industry leader, I am committed to creating value through technical solutions, education, strategic leadership, and pursuing excellence in business strategy.
