34 years of RTL design/verification/low-power design in memory systems of high-performance microprocessors.After college I worked for 14 years at IBM in NY and TX starting with IBM mainframe designs for server markets and then RISC Systems in Austin. Following my career at IBM, I transitioned from CPU design to join a colleague at a small startup called Chicory Systems. This was a fun and successful 3 year stint away from CPU design in which we used Arm as one of our architectures developing a java accelerator. This was my introduction to the architecture.After this I joined Arm and was back in the CPU design business. Arm was relatively new to Austin when I joined and were just completing their first design. Since joining Arm I've had the privilege of working on many exciting cores including (Cortex-A8, Cortex-A15, Cortex-A57, Cortex-A72, Cortex-A76, Neoverse-N1, Neoverse-N2, Neoverse-V1 and a few others.I have been at Arm now approaching 20 years both as a designer and now for the past few years as the functional manager of the RTL team. We have an awesome team of designers who continue to produce the next-generation of high-performance Arm cores, year after year. It is is pleasure to work with such a talented group of engineers!
