      • Ottawa, Canada Area

      As technology and regulatory environments changed, FileFacets also evolved—winning awards, expanding to international markets, and offering services to government, energy, resource, utilities, finance and insurance sectors. With eight years of experience using and perfecting our software, processing hundreds of millions of files, FileFacets has morphed into a SaaS company with resellers around the world. The cloud-based, process-driven software continues to help organizations to reorganize file shares, process ROT, de-duplicate, attribute metadata, run disposition process and migrate content into organized shared drives, SharePoint and a variety of ECMs. This same technology supports compliance, management and protection of PII (Personally Identifiable Information), and is particularly crucial in the support of GDPR and the soon-to-be-enacted CCPA (California Consumer Privacy Act).In my new role, I continue to help clients understand their needs and how FileFacets can help them build systems that find, streamline, and protect their data.

    • Co-founder & Senior Vice President, Project Delivery and Corporate Services
      • Jan 2010 - Aug 2014
      • Ottawa, Canada Area

      Founded in 2000, FileFacets (formerly Perram Corporation) helps companies define and refine their information governance (IG). As many organizations began migrating data from multiple servers and individual desktops and laptops, they needed to find, sort, and process massive numbers of files. FileFacets software provides systematic, automated, and customized file location and processing—especially for ROT (Redundant, Obsolete, Trivial) files.I led the collaboration with clients to understand their needs and design systems and processes—and FileFacets software parameters—to transform their unstructured files into streamlined, easy-to-access, and ready-to-migrate data.
