After a rich 22 years at Intel I am venturing out to find my next professional home. I cut my teeth in manufacturing and have spent the second half of my career on a field trip exploring all aspects of how business is built and optimized. These roles gave me deep experience in cost modeling, benchmarking, custom silicon development, communication, product management and supply chain. I am constantly curious about how complexity fits together and how technology comes together to solve problems for customers. I have a talent for meeting technical people where they are and bring them up or down to drive action to achieve ambitious results. I take pride in being a supportive and fun member of a team. I love ideas, both my own and my coworkers. Taking these ideas and fitting them together to make great things happen is what I live for in my professional life. I build connections between people and technology that others can't see. This is driven by focussing on root causes of problems and not getting distracted by symptoms. This vision comes from a manufacturing foundation in understanding how people interface with tools and technology to meet business objectives. I really base my satisfaction on being a part of teams that work together to do great things. My education and experience puts me in a position to functionally understand technology hardware. I understand how software and hardware work together, but I am not a software developer. I am always eager to learn new technologies and how they enable products come together to meet a customer need or solve a customer's problems. I am energized by meeting new people, so please reach out to talk if I seem like the kind of person you want to work with. I will definitely enjoy getting to know you and what problems you are trying to solve.
