Dear Sir or Madam:
My interest is to obtain a full time permanent position that provides stability, creativity, career growth, in a
pioneering environment. Experienced in delivery of services and support for business continuum to a variety of
industries (i.e., healthcare, financial, brokerage, trading, manufacturing, education, law enforcement, private,
public, and Federal sectors) provides me with a diverse comprehensive business technological background. Over
35-years, working with high performance teams providing human safety, crisis management, information
availability that sustained business operations, reduced operating costs, streamlined overall operational functions,
and simplified the complexity of critical infrastructure, while provided maximum technological flexibility.
Emergency Preparedness / Business Continuity / Continuity of Operations / Contingency Planning / Disaster
Recovery is not just about protecting the people, technology, data, and creating redundancy. It is about
understanding the business; keeping people safe, connecting to information and core business functions, so
business can operate seamlessly uninterrupted with critical infrastructure resilience. Organizations that plan,
prepare, and exercise for unforeseen interruptions, have proven to recover normal business operations and/or
functions quicker.
Highlights of my professional qualifications include:
 Emergency Operation Center (EOC) communications, command, control, and crisis management – working
with high performance teams including a variety of industries (financial, brokerage, trading, healthcare,
utilities, local and state resources) to deliver services & support throughout unforeseen business interruptions
(e.g., earthquakes, hurricanes Sandy, Isabel, Hugo, Katrina, Rita, Wilma, Gustav, Hanna, and Ike).
 Ability to conduct all types of Business Continuity lifecycle planning, analysis, implementation, training,
exercises, and maintenance projects (e.g., Business Technology Profile; Business Process & Impact
Analysis; Strategy design; Occupant Emergency Plan, Contingency Plan; Business and Technology recovery
plans, Exercise Management, Continuous Improvement Maintenance), interacting with customers in
presentations, analysis, data gathering, strategic design, implementation, and plan exercise activities.
 Developed a unified Business Continuity Program that provided for the safety of people, protection of
corporate intellectual property, essential resources, functions, and business services. The program combined
emergency preparedness, crisis management, risk management, contingency planning, and disaster recovery
to sustain business continuum. Early warning detection designed-in allowed rapid effective response to
potential threats in a manner that protected people, corporate intellectual property, and operational
infrastructure. The solution included policies, process definitions, procedures, action-oriented plans, and
templates that formulated a recovery service manual for business to continue when a disruption occurred.
