This was an exciting time in my career as I transitioned to higher education in a role with impact across the state. My mission was to develop and create a sense of membership in a statewide network supporting and enabling technology of education, government, healthcare, and other public-facing organizations. As changes in technology accelerated, I worked to build a team that helped our member organizations maximize the benefits of the changes and the value received from their technology investments. My work was the foundation on which WiscNet was built, and it continues to be a valuable resource today.
