      Technical management of the start up of Canadian operations. Oversaw all technical aspects of a company growing from a 5 person startup to a 60 person service provider. Key Reflections: While we had great technical capability, this company is a great example of expanding to quickly in a congested market that was subject to poor market valuation methods.

      Assigned to the Australian Tax Office account, this was a short term role spinning up IT infrastructure for projects. Key Reflections: It was short, but probably my first time in such a highly structured (but not necessarily productive) client governance environment.
