Contract / Consultant / Project Experience
Contract / Consultant / Project agreements are based on the job requested. This can entail an inventory of installed services, the grooming of installed services, designing services to meet a specific request or functioning as your representative with a Local Exchange Carrier on a specific project or projects. In this way I function as your "temp" network specialist, providing the expertise on an "as needed" basis rather than as a full time employee. I have 25 years of experience in the telecommunications industry as a product manager, project manager, network specialist and sales consultant.
