Working as an independent consultant, have assisted several small, entrepreneurial companies with important business issues. In one case, I assisted the company President in developing a shared services platform onto which acquired companies could be merged in order to deliver the company’s “roll up” strategy. In another case I assisted a company’s start up team in developing and executing a market entry plan for their new company and product. In a different case I assisted company partners in refreshing their business strategy, enabling them to pursue the next level of company growth. Working as an instructor of budding entrepreneurs I have had numerous opportunities to mentor and counsel individuals working to bring innovative ideas to market.

My current interests are focused on the intersection of data and data science/analytics-oriented research; the goal being to continue to discover opportunities to disrupt decisions and industries currently based on human judgement. In my current role I have had the opportunity to contribute in multiple exciting ways – from completing individual research projects to developing processes to manage a world-class bio-metric research organization to helping integrate that organization into a global company (Ant Financial). At Zoloz we are combining modern computing power with deep neural networks to create the artificial intelligence necessary to make machines recognize humans at higher accuracy than we can as humans. We have developed and are continuing to develop “first in the world” technologies.

Worked with the CEO of a Fortune 500 company to deliver an enterprise-wide $1 billion plus cost reduction program. The plan coordinated 500+ professionals globally, and delivered the business value anticipated. The change impacted all functional areas of this 14,000 employee, unionized company. Worked with the CEO of a now Fortune Global 500 company to merge a series of acquisitions into the international business. The project developed a common operating platform and moved each of the acquisitions onto it; delivering substantial shareholder value. The client has subsequently used the platform for additional acquisitions as it pursues it’s growth strategy. Worked with the CFO of a different Fortune 500 company to develop from scratch a Trading and Risk Management function. This engagement consisted of developing the functions, organization, systems and processes to allow this client to become an effective, well managed, and compliant energy trading company. Many aspects of this engagement involved intensive, leading edge data analytics in order to derive the client’s portfolio risk position (i.e. contract and counter party risk analytics). The company subsequently merged the capability into a joint venture that was eventually sold for more than $1 billion. Worked with the same CFO to develop an internal cost management analytics capability which facilitated the client’s complex matrix management approach. The solution allowed consistent, accurate analysis of revenues and costs across shared services, multiple regulated states, and several organizational business units. These engagements and many others have given me functional experience in HR/Payroll, Finance and Performance Analytics, Supply Chain, ERP, Work Management, and Shared Services.
