Summary
With over 30 years of experience in the electronics industry, I am passionate about creating and delivering innovative solutions for hardware design and verification. As the Vice President of Business Development at Sigasi, I am responsible for expanding the global market presence and customer base of our EDA tools, which enable FPGA and ASIC designers to work more efficiently and effectively with modern software development methodologies and languages. My background combines hardware design, software development, and technical marketing, which gives me a unique perspective and insight into the needs and challenges of the electronics industry. I have worked on cutting-edge projects and products, such as CD and DVD players, OpenCL and HLS compilers, and oneAPI for heterogeneous platforms. I have also led and supported teams of engineers, marketers, and customers across various domains and regions. My mission is to bridge the gap between hardware design and software development, and to empower the next generation of hardware engineers with the best tools and practices.
