Advanced Cloud technologies are key to leading transformation for the academy, but moving to the Cloud isn’t merely a technical issue.  Leaders need strong processes, standards, and strategies to swiftly deliver solutions for broad and rapidly growing user needs in the Cloud.

• Develop new IT Skillsets for staff supporting Cloud Services
• Transition IT Roles to support the move to the Cloud
• Evolve IT Teams and Organizations to adapt to moving to the Cloud

Thomas plays an important role in leading a number of organizations in the Computing Services organization, including: Project and Service Management; Communication, Documentation, and Education Services.
