I’m an executive leader motivated by innovation, mentoring and building high-performing teams. I helped bring LinkedIn through IPO and later acquisition by Microsoft through leading our Premium Subscriber Experience and Partner Integrations business lines, and creating and owning our technology platforms such as Commerce Platform, API Platform, and Data Infrastructure. Since 2017, I have been leading LinkedIn Sales Solutions, a $1.3B+ business that helps B2B companies build data-driven sales organizations.My passion for technology and early work on programming robots at Rocketdyne led me to Steve Jobs at NeXT Computer. I later led development of an early wireless internet service for the Palm VII, partnered on a startup with Steve Wozniak and evolved products and platforms at Yahoo and LinkedIn. I have experienced both success and failure in leading-edge innovation, and I am excited to continue pushing the boundaries of technology. My specialties are AI-powered applications, commerce platforms, data infrastructure and third-party developer integrations. I focus a lot of energy on developing high-performing teams and creating the environment for them to thrive. I have developed turnaround strategies that I call the "People / Process / Product / Tech" playbook: ▪ Get the right people in the right roles and develop deep bench ▪ Incorporate a rhythm of planning and predictable execution. ▪ Align on the roadmap and priorities (do the right things) ▪ Maximize developer productivity and craftsmanship (do things right).The executives and leaders that I regularly coach appreciate that I help them clarify their situations, evaluate their options and navigate their path. Every morning at 8am, you’ll find me mentoring over breakfast. My areas of expertise include product, business and go-to-market strategy, scaling organizations and innovation, communication and presentation skills, executive presence and career navigation.In my free time, my wife Susan and I enjoy building and fixing things, mostly houses and cars. I do appreciate good tools.

Senior Software EngineerNext Oct 1990 - Mar 1993Steve Jobs wanted to build NeXT computers using NeXT computers! I wrote customized NeXT software to control a variety of image-guided robots in the factory. The most challenging was a robot to place and solder fine pitch silicon onto the NeXT circuit board (do a search for “tape automated bonding”). The factory was later shut down as NeXT pivoted to a software-only company. At that point, I pivoted to building and supporting NeXTStep applications. I was honored to work with and learn from some of the brightest and most driven innovators of the time.

Member Of Technical StaffRockwell Aug 1981 - Mar 1990Milwaukee, Wi, UsI paid my way through college by working at Rocketdyne. At first, I supported development of the “Delta” rocket engines that propelled communication satellites into orbit. After graduation in May 1985, I was selected to work in a team of four engineers on a NASA project to develop image-guided robots to weld the space shuttle main engines. What an amazing learning experience! Under an exceptional mentor, I created the main controller software that guided the robot’s trajectory leveraging signals from an image processing subsystem. That led me to image processing, and in 1988, I transferred to the Rockwell Artificial Intelligence Lab in Palo Alto to continue working on AI techniques for image recognition and decision systems. That was an exceptional experience to accompany my grad school at Stanford, where my advisor, Bernard Widrow, was referred to as “Father of Neural Networks.”
