I have a career of achievements in the development, commercialization, licensing, and marketing of innovative technologies. My efforts result in the creation of value for your organization, I can accomplish this because I speak the language of researchers and business executives. My strengths are in managing technology development from basic research to product marketing. My breadth spans from conducting basic research in conducting polymers (with the Nobel Prize Laureates of 2000 - http://www.nobelprize.org/nobel_prizes/chemistry/laureates/2000/) to conducting applied research in electro-active and electro-optic materials, to product development & management in analytical instrumentation, to technology assessment and licensing.As the Technology Transition Manager at Physical Sciences Inc., I evaluated technology, identified commercialization pathways, and structured partnership agreements that resulted in income to the bottom line.As a Product Manager at Digilab, I was responsible for the creation of a product line that transformed a generic laboratory instrument into a dedicated analyzer that provided answers for non-scientists and created a new market and customer segment for the company.As a Program Manager at Foster-Miller Inc., I lead the team that developed and commercialized the first mid-infrared fiber optic sensors for laboratory FTIR spectrometers. These products were sold through distribution agreements that I negotiated and enabled Foster-Miller to achieve commercial sales revenue from its research operation.
