About Steve

I’ve worked on the design of large-scale, complex, distributed information systems for most of my career. Early on I worked in R&D, then later as a Principal Architect and Consultant in Enterprise Architecture and the design of enterprise-scale solutions. I enjoy solving hard problems, like

unraveling the complexities of a large system of systems
(re)designing systems for new business needs
finding new opportunities to leverage existing systems (and talent)
planning enterprise-scale systems transformation
transforming IT organizations, processes, and systems

With the release of my new book, I’m focusing on ways to help organizations of all sizes take the next step toward delivering true business agility.

I’m currently the Principal at Firefly Strategic Solutions. Give us a call, or email a note about your needs.
