Manager of Professional Services at Novus Insight, promoted through the technical ranks over 7+ years. I lead a seven-person support team delivering managed IT across eastern Connecticut, own our company-wide NinjaOne RMM, and lead automation development across the MSP. I stay hands-on with the PowerShell and Python that turn manual operations into controlled, documented, repeatable runs. Certified across automation, security, and identity.
