Overview

Change agent for driving technology projects that are the most demanding in nature, and require all aspects of leadership and technology contribution to succeed. Provide technology roadmaps that are realistic, based on 25 years of experience, that are rooted in reality. Bring direct know-how, from running production systems in the most demanding environments to immediately add tangible value. My DNA is rooted in creatively taking any challenge, and finding the best path to solve it --- and executing it! The hardest, most difficult endeavors, that appear doomed for failure --- are exactly the fires that I love to jump into.
