Summary
Curious about everything, always willing to listen, learn, and laugh. Always seeking hard problems to help solve. Recipient of the Nortel President’s Award for Innovation in 1999 for Europe, a member of the IAM Strategy 300 - the world's 300 most influential IP strategists, and life member of the ACM (Association of Computing Machinery) as well as an avid reader, hiker and sailor. Business and Technical leadership experience across a broad set of technology industries (Cloud Computing, Web Services, Instant Messaging and Presence, VOIP, Security, Enterprise Software, Intellectual Property, Telecoms, Datacoms, and Data Analysis) as well as executive search, recruitment screening, coaching, team formation, and strategic execution. Specialties: Team, Product, and Program conception, development, and management. Twenty-plus years of experiences, mistakes, friendships, and humorous stories resulting from managing complex business and technology organizations. This has resulted in some apparent knowledge in starting and scaling both early-stage and established companies. I love building teams, bringing products to market, and developing customer-focused solutions. The result is fun, laughter, some experience, and the ability to start and grow new businesses and generate revenue by building great teams and great products and product experiences through such teams.
