Transforming IT Complexity into Digital Clarity

Meet Our Founder

At South Stream, our journey began with Founder Cheryl Soderstrom’s unique path into the world of IT consulting. Cheryl’s story is one of unexpected beginnings and a passion for solving complex challenges in the technology landscape.

Cheryl’s entry into the world of IT was serendipitous, as she initially aspired to be a teacher. However, her ability to understand challenges holistically, propose creative solutions, and communicate effectively in a way that resonated with all levels of an organization led her to the often complicated world of IT. Embracing her curiosity and passion for problem-solving, Cheryl immersed herself in the industry, taking on various roles and leadership positions and earning accolades for her ability to operate seamlessly at both strategic and tactical levels.

After gaining valuable experience in market-making big tech companies, Cheryl now draws on her diverse background and extensive experience to provide strategic consulting services to firms of all sizes seeking industry insights and innovative solutions for competitive advantage.

One notable compliment from a Big Four consulting partner encapsulated Cheryl’s unique skill set: “You’re one of the few people I’ve ever met who can operate at the 50,000-foot level and the 5,000-foot level.” This ability, coupled with her diverse experiences, enables Cheryl to offer clients a distinctive perspective and proven execution skills that drive client agendas for success and innovation.

At South Stream, we embody Cheryl’s vision and commitment to providing clients with unparalleled expertise, strategic clarity, and innovative solutions that propel businesses forward in the ever-evolving and exciting IT landscape.
