PROFESSIONAL HIGHLIGHTS
I have successfully lead Implementation projects for multiple fortune 500 companies both
nationally and internationally. Early on at Clarity Systems, I began as a Junior Consultant and
had been given duties typically assigned to Senior Consultants and Project Leads.
Performing tasks at a high level with quality results, and proving that I was capable of taking
on more responsibility, I quickly achieved Senior Consultant status for the business solution,
FSR, all within a time span of one year. FSR (Financial Statement Reporting) rapidly became
a leading business intelligence software since it became available on the market, heavily
contributing to Clarity Systems revenue growth in the industry.
