The Next Chapter

From program delivery to IT leadership

As Director of IT Operations, I now manage six employees across SAP, LEIF, Infrastructure, and Security. I co-lead the IT department alongside the Director of Application Development, reporting directly to the CEO and jointly overseeing IT budget and strategy. The programs below reflect the delivery experience that preceded that promotion.

Context

Complexity to Operating Rhythm

Business Environment

CIC serves distributed client operations with procurement, storefront, invoicing, partner, and reporting workflows that need reliable execution across many stakeholders.

Program Challenge

System knowledge, delivery priorities, reporting needs, and process ownership needed to be translated into clear backlog governance, training, and executive-ready visibility.

Operating Scope

Client transition and archive delivery, e-commerce operations, SAP and Coupa coordination, Power BI and Looker Studio reporting, Azure DevOps and Smartsheet backlogs, partner workflows, and adoption support.

Approach

How the Work Was Structured

Backlog Governance

Created clearer intake, prioritization, status tracking, and stakeholder communication patterns across Azure DevOps and Smartsheet.

Analytics and Decision Support

Used Power BI and Looker Studio reporting to surface operational and margin signals, including pricing and margin variance for leadership action.

Modernization Discovery

Mapped legacy platform complexity across 450+ stored procedures and 217 database entities to support migration planning, ERD documentation, and SAP integration work.

Adoption and Training

Translated system changes into training, role clarity, and operational artifacts so teams could adopt new workflows rather than just receive new tooling.

Outcomes

Measurable enterprise impact

Data Migration

2.6M+ rows engineered for the flagship client transition and archive delivery.

Migration Quality

88.3% verified cross-file match rate across the client transition data.

Storefront Cutover

3 storefronts decommissioned on schedule with same-day cutover execution.

Why It Matters

What This Demonstrates

Enterprise ambiguity

Ability to turn undocumented system and process complexity into a clear delivery model.

Business and technical translation

Comfort moving between operational metrics, technical dependencies, stakeholder needs, and executive reporting.

Adoption-focused delivery

Emphasis on training, governance, role clarity, and operating rhythms so change becomes durable.
