Chief Information Officer
Savoy Associates
We’ve got the Commodore 64 to thank for bringing Phil into our lives here at Savoy; Phil has over 20 years of professional IT experience, and it all started when he taught himself to program at the age of 11.
This strong passion for technology, computer and information systems, and application development became the driving force behind Phil’s successful career. Prior to joining Savoy in 2011, Phil worked for Hess Corporation as Senior Manager, Application Development, and also has notable experience in IT for insurance, energy, finance and telecommunications industries. He was also awarded the CIO Award for Innovation during his time at Hess by its Global CIO.
Phil understands the importance of agility when it comes to technology and our industry—the landscape changes constantly, and to stay competitive, it’s imperative to quickly adapt along with it. Phil brings this mentality to his everyday work where he’s responsible for defining and implementing Savoy’s technology strategy to meet the company’s growth objectives. Phil leads Savoy’s IT and Operations Departments to plan and execute these initiatives. Additionally, as Savoy’s HIPAA Privacy and Security Officer, Phil is responsible for ensuring all systems are secure and internal compliance is being upheld.
Some of Phil’s strengths include collaboration, continuous process improvement, and mentoring staff. His weaknesses are his three cats, Burries, Bubba, and Buggy.
