When we 'connect' the impossible becomes possible. Collaboration trumps hurdles whether economical, geographical, or technological. Beyond a statement that sounded right - it's the path I walk, a reality I live and a lesson I teach

I once had an epiphany; there is no measured recipe for collaboration as it's derived when the like minded connect & engage upon common goals to find that ONE answer. Then CIOsynergy was born under my apple tree (literally); a company I started in 2008 to connect & empower IT leaders. 7 years later we're a team that exercise collaboration to host over 100 IT leadership events a year through North America, Europe and LATAM.

What put us on the map in a market dominated by billion dollar Goliath' with pockets deeper than fort knocks? Well, we believe in being disruptive game changers and are first out of the gate with ideas that challenge the status quo and we're fueled on 'passion'. The kind of passion that keeps one up at night until the job gets done, the same passion that put you to tears when you touched failure, and yes that same passion that makes the impossible suddenly look so possible.

CIOsynergy has outgrown the label of a 'company'; for those who live this non stop ticket to creativity, it's that open gate to Opportunity Ave, it's that roadtrip with the unbelievable story. For our clients, we're that NBA draft first pick, we're the ones who cared, but more importantly we're the ones who were there.

After many years of watching & learning collaboration and it's many faucets we are now the leading authority in IT Leadership Engagements. Our events offer a collection of roadmaps to the Office of the CIO that have been artfully mastered to enhance collaboration - discussions that just don't happen in the confines of the office.

For CIOs & IT leaders CIOsynergy is a platform to exercise concept to reality in a playground of peers. A focus group, but they're all armed with multi-million dollar budgets and a captains seat on the innovation deck of their enterprise.

For Solution Providers CIOsynergy is a legoland of towering intricate structures; they hold the missing pieces to help connect those structures into thriving cities.

A BIO is a schematic for who one is, in summary... My passion is 'Collaboration' and my canvas is CIOsynergy. My Life is a family tree that spans continents but flowers in Chicago with twin daughters, a son and my rock (my wife ofcourse).
