A tenacious and focused technologist, with 25+ years of experience and a breadth of expertise spanning strategy, product, customer experience, and partnership development. Across my career, I have brought my experience to support start-ups, established corporations, and R&D organizations to achieve uncharted levels of growth and success. For the last 12 years, I have held multiple roles at Intel Corporation, currently serving as AI Software Architect working on ways to enable our customers to deploy distributed-edge solutions across healthcare, life sciences, retail, banking, manufacturing, etc.Prior to this, I was a Portfolio Manager for Intel Capital, specializing in AI and Software Development. In this position, I advise over 50 CxOs primarily working for AI start-ups to evolve their products, expand markets, and leverage Intel and industry analysts to grow their business and create value for end-users. At Intel, I additionally have led partnership development with AI start-ups to create proofs of concepts for adoption by large enterprise customers. While working as a Principal Strategist within Intel Education Group, I identified best-in-class, emerging technologies and drove product integrations with third-party developers.This ability to be abreast of cutting-edge industry practices has been a consistent narrative throughout my career. While working as a Senior Research Scientist at Apple, I created a prototype which allowed for the development of geocoding and developed a patent for work done on representing application state as means to support richer end-user communications. At Learning in Motion, I gained 10+ years of experience in software product development and created a scalable client/server application which was later deployed to over 20 countries.Throughout my experiences, I have gained a passion for understanding the impact of technology on customers and end-users and the skill in creating strategy, products, and partnerships to add value for all stakeholders.
