Sean Story
Greetings, Internet and Internet Users:
My name is Sean Story. If you can’t tell by the aesthetic of this website, I am an Information Technology (commonly abbreviated by the letters “I” and “T”, collectively “IT”) Manager.
The purpose of this website is simple: to provide you with an overview of who I am professionally and my skill sets.
The Dancing Penguin Video:
Before we dive into the details of who I am professionally, please enjoy this video that I found on the internet containing dancing penguins. As you may know, Tux (a penguin) is the mascot for Linux (of which I am a big fan). Thus, I was inspired to include a dancing penguin video section on my website. My cats enjoy watching these videos as well. Your pets may find them entertaining too, so I recommend grabbing them before you press the play button.
Work Stuff I Do:
• Review and assess clients’ current IT infrastructure, systems, processes, policies, and standards.
• Collaborate with clients to define requirements and recommended IT changes to meet business objectives, increase efficiency of operations, and improve security.
• Guide implementation of recommended improvement initiatives or other projects requested by the client in multi-vendor environments.
• Manage through the full project lifecycle systems implementation and other IT projects to enhance security and redundancy for companies and their clients to meet organizational goals, and increase employee productivity.
• Write IT departmental budgets for clients in the legal, healthcare, financial services, entertainment, non-profit, and education sectors.
• Select, configure, deploy and manage endpoint protection, incident response management software, WordPress websites/learning management systems/eCommerce sites, firewalls, and a variety of cybersecurity related hardware, software, and services.
