I am a career senior executive with a rich array of leadership experiences that have prepared me well for Board appointments and C-suite opportunities in product and end-consumer focused firms.I have had long on-the-ground tenure in numerous locations around the world as well as experience leading large teams and various corporate functions from product development and execution, to self-contained operating business units.I possess the ability and experience to practice at the intersection of technical engineering and business management with the inclination to dive as deep in either or both areas as the situation demands.Specifically, I have excelled in strategic planning, program management, product engineering, and general management (with P&L). Working across many cultures and business arrangements has enabled me to hone a genuine and productive interpersonal leadership approach. I have also been a member or key advisor on multiple business unit board of directors.
