I am a PMO Director and Program Management professional with proven effectiveness in both the New Product Development (NPD) process of technology products serving advanced applications as well as the process for capital expansion projects involving manufacturing equipment and facilities. I especially thrive in dynamic, changing, and demanding work environments with experience in Semiconductor, Automotive, Process Automation, Telecommunications, and Engineering EPC industries with high-tech engineering and operations structure. I have developed and managed the strategy to implement and grow two Program Management Offices focused on technology-critical products and applications. My successful track-record of collaborating with business units and cross-functional teams to drive new product revenue growth through situational management, leadership, teaming, and through practical application of sound management skills and knowledge has resulted in reduced time-to-market and increased NPD revenue.Recognized for leading, developing and mentoring new and experienced Engineers, Project, and Program Managers to achieve consistent and continuous improvement in methods, standards, and work processes to deliver Project, Program, and Portfolio success. Themes, Imperatives, and Lessons Learned from career-long management of technical resources for advanced engineering are based on continuous learning and improvement, successfully adapting to new industries, and proactively utilizing Dualism, Followership, and Situational Management to achieve performance objectives both independently and as a team-member.An avid and active outdoor adventurist, I enjoy various sports. As a member of a relay team have run across the country from ocean-to-ocean to raise money for the Jimmy Fund and various other children’s charities, run multiple marathons and 24-hour relay events, and enjoy more casual participation in other events as well.
