CIO in Atlanta, with 25+ years in technology: infrastructure, security and compliance, development, ecommerce, and data. Mostly at companies where technology was underinvested and had to start carrying growth.

I publish what I've picked up doing that work. Some of it is code, some of it is a checklist, and a lot of it is just what I'd tell you if you called and asked. If any of it saves you a month, it did its job.

Departments install independently, agents own non-overlapping paths, and that split is enforced in CI.

Security and compliance programs built from nothing: SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA. AI and automation where the return is measured. IT turnarounds, vendor arrangements nobody has looked at in years, and technology diligence and integration on acquisitions. Mostly the unglamorous plumbing that decides whether any of the rest of it works.
