Selected work
Two engagements that show the two halves of the job: holding architectural direction on a program of consequence, and running the budget, the team, and the operations that keep a retail footprint on its feet.
Each write-up covers the situation, what I owned, the decisions I made, and what came of them. Figures reflect my public professional record. No client architecture, topology, or vendor configuration detail is presented.
