My passion is helping companies digitally transform through innovative use of industrial technologies. This involves a unique ability to bridge gaps across financial constraints, industry trends, business strategy, industry trends, technology blueprints, and culture.I enjoy working with clients to engineer approaches to achieve more by working smarter. I've found that business results from digital transformation can come from major step-changes in business model or incremental improvements to efficiencies. As a Director of Manufacturing Solutions at Hitachi Vantara, I've focused on the "in the trenches" approach, exploring and implementing digital solutions to improve on existing operating modes through innovative digital-physical modeling, data analysis and system integration.What do I do? • Drive customer success through industry and technical expertise • Emphasize financial and people aspects of any industrial problem • Engineer tailored solutions that meet the business objectives of our clients • Develop senior-level client and industry relationships • Define and develop go-to-market strategies and materials • Explore innovative ways to address existing manufacturing problems • Build, mentor, inspire high-powered teamsOutside of 9-to-5, I am father to 4 wonderful and active kids. I've discovered the reward of coaching their youth sports. I enjoy puzzles and games of all kinds: pencil, logic, backyard, and video.
