Harley got his start by taking advice from his relative’s friend to pursue a career in technology.  He would work in a doctor’s office working on computers at night and attend school during the day to get his bachelor’s degree from Florida Atlantic University and later a Masters’s Degree.

Once he got into a leadership role, he saw the path to success.  As the manager for network engineering and telecom for a large institution he learned time management, further enhanced his people skills, and began to truly develop his management style.

As the Manager of Network Engineering and Telecom, he oversaw Network Engineering, Telecom, Audio Visual, Cabling Infrastructure, Digital Signage, and Mobility teams. After successfully managing these teams and winning service excellence awards and being recognized by his peers as a transformational leader encouraged him to pursue the next step as a director.

To drive technology, we need to drive the people behind it. Understand what motivates individuals, understand how to keep them engaged, and encourage them to begin their path. At the end of the day, Harley believes that if he has impacted one person in his life during his journey then he will feel accomplished.
