Summary
I am the founder, consultant, and lecturer at Differentiation Studio, a technology applications discovery, branding, and communications firm that helps clients conceptualize and commercialize new products. My mission is to create innovative products and business models based on human centered design, and delivery of tangible and ethical value to individuals and society.

Some of my selected clients include Intuitive Surgical, Opinno, Spain Tech Center, France Telecom/Orange, and MIT/Stanford Venture Lab. I have worked and lived in Europe, Latin America, and Asia. I speak Spanish and have been a long-time volunteer with the United States Coast Guard.
