As a global leader in the technology industry, I create and implement strategies that drive business development, innovation, build revenue, and promote opportunities to expand through high-impact alliances, innovative products, and new programs. Skilled at working across functions and cultures in Asia and North America, I am able to assimilate quickly because of my exceptional interpersonal and communication skills. These skills are used to build alliances and market products which contributed to substantial multi-million dollar deal closings and rapid business growth. My ability to bridge engineering with other business functions has proved to be particularly valuable. I am able to talk function-specific “languages” to be a conduit for collaboration. I developed these skills through a foundation of academic achievement in engineering and business combined with on-the-job experience with increasing responsibility throughout my career. Early in my career, I was recognized as a NASA award-winning engineer. As my career progresses, I am sought for my industry and international expertise and requested to speak at conferences and the Canadian Advanced Technology Alliance.I value continued professional development, mentoring others to contribute and a collaborative approach. These values yield innovative results.Areas of Expertise: Global Business Development | Strategic Planning & Analysis | Negotiations & Deal Closings | Executive Collaborations | Relationship Management | Budget & P&L Management | Financial Modeling/Evaluation | Global Team Management | Project Management | Innovation Management | Startup Operations/Support | Public Speaking/Presentations | Product Management/Development
