I also served as President of Oxford Computer Group (North America), assisting with the launch of that company's North American operations and developing an education initiative with Microsoft that led to Oxford being named Microsoft Partner of the Year in 2008. In addition to my executive management experience, I also served as General Counsel for both Corbis and ARIS Corporation, responsible for the legal aspects of those companies' merger and acquisition strategies, and ARIS's successful IPO in 1997.
