Skills
Summary
I'm an integrator who can explain tech to business people, and business to tech people. My avid curiosity pushes me to keep asking questions until I can identify root causes and solve complex challenges. I have a solid multi-lingual and multi-cultural experience working with businesses around the world, with a track record going from bootstrapped small businesses to VC-backed start-ups to global behemoths. Broad macro culture complemented by vertical knowledge in markets including publishing, software, defense/aerospace, ecommerce/retail/CPG, mining/commodities/energy, real estate, and healthcare. I strive to always ground my strategic perspective in operational realities. ✔ Business -- Do the right things, right. As a leader, outline a strategy, recruit and coach great people, then execute with solid operations, product & project management, sales, marketing. Customer-centric, always. ✔ Technology -- sensible end-to-end data & software architecture, practical AI use cases.
