Skills
Summary
I craft new business ideas and launch new businesses to solve big challenges. I create new products, devise innovative business models, and love developing business strategies for young, vibrant ventures. I launched the IP and OEM licensing business at Savi and helped drive its acquisition by Lockheed for $400 million. I originated the idea of a standard for the Internet of Things called DASH7 and built an ambitious venture, Haystack, to monetize it. I have been part of large and small companies and began my career coding databases in the Office of Management & Budget. I enjoy ocean swimming, karate, mountaineering, and jazz piano and have a beautiful wife and three awesome kids. Specialties: IP and OEM licensing, Business Development, Alliances, Blockchain.
