Software architecture and development for a wide variety of clients, such as Ameritrade, IBM, and the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. Engagements included RDBMS-related applications, secure Web applications, RF data systems, and e-commerce applications.

I lead a team of about 200 technologists responsible for digital delivery of products to the clients of Gartner’s $3.6 billion research and advisory business. Our cloud-based platform supports Web, Mobile, and Email delivery, as well as AI/ML-driven Search and Recommendation systems, and peer engagement. Our systems deliver Web-based content (including research documents, the Magic Quadrant and Hype Cycles) as well as audio and video content, and Peer Insights reviews. I also lead Gartner’s internal Architecture function, which has technical design oversight for all of our internally-developed software and SaaS integrations.

I lead the application development and on-site technology teams driving Gartner's $470M Global Conferences business, which includes Gartner and Evanta conferences ranging from the major, annual Symposia/Xpos to smaller, invitation-only summits throughout the year. I also lead the engineering teams for Digital Marketing at all layers, from the gartner.com Web site to marketing intelligence and lead management. My teams specialize in high-performance Web applications, database systems, mobile applications, CRM systems, WiFi technology, indoor mapping/wayfinding, and video streaming. Since January 2020, I have also led the Architecture and Strategy teams, which set the standards for Gartner's overall technology direction and provide internal design guidance and user-experience research.

As Chief Architect, I served as the technology thought-leader at Priceline for its entire stack -- covering front-end Web and Mobile applications, Web services, API and orchestration services, messaging middleware, transient and durable data storage, and the back-end systems that engage its business partners. I worked closely with senior developers to encourage sound, scalable designs and good engineering practices, with special emphasis on building cloud-friendly systems that consistently satisfy its customers and met the needs of the business as it grew. I chaired the Technical Steering Committee, part of a transparent discussion and review process that encourages and rewards innovation across the entire technology team.

Leader of the technology and development teams for all three of Priceline.com's strategic mobile platforms: iOS, Android, and Mobile Web. Working closely with Marketing and the business units within the company, I developed the original versions of Priceline's groundbreaking iPhone, iPad, and Android offerings, which now account for a major share of Priceline's daily booking volume.

As VP Architecture, I designed and created many of the front-end and middle-tier systems that allowed Priceline to scale to its current position as a leader in online travel. Extensive experience in horizontally-scalable transactional systems, multi-tier real-time monitoring, application performance tuning, build and deploy systems for internally-developed software, and security.

In the days before the Internet became popular, Prodigy was a pioneer in "online services", delivering digital content to PC-equipped subscribers via dial-up modem. Software standards were still evolving, cultivating a culture at Prodigy of building nearly every layer of the system in-house. I created PC-based systems for automating creation of certain types of content (such as news and financial data), and created alternative interfaces for Microsoft Windows, including the Prodigy Web Browser, which (for a brief period in 1995) was the world's most widely-used graphical interface to the Internet.
