Rodney West, Technical Practice Owner for Service Management
Summer Hogan,
My favorite quote is from Bene Brown and reads "Only when we are brave enough to explore the darkness, we discover the infinite power of our light." I am a results oriented product owner and enjoy working collaboratively with all members of the business and software development lifecycle in definition and validation of products, I am also a community leader and love helping others learn and grow in the tools we use everyday!
