The Critical Role Of Data Centers In The Age Of AI
Techstrong.ai, Wednesday, May 28th, 2025
Over the past few decades, I've worked across the data infrastructure industry - from my early years as an IBEW Master Electrician building complex networks, to leading large-scale construction programs in New York City.
As a program manager, I directed the buildout of new data centers and IT infrastructure for one of the city's largest airports. I've managed the installation of high-performance trading floors for financial institutions and led infrastructure projects for a leading university focused on researching neurological diseases such as Parkinson's and Alzheimer's.
My primary responsibility in each of these roles has been overseeing the electrical, mechanical and IT systems that power critical facilities. These systems are not just components of a building - they are the backbone of modern operations.
