I have worked at growing technology companies in a variety of product development roles for my entire career. I work in organizations that are growing because growth creates new opportunities and new challenges -- for the company, for the organization, for the people and for me. Growth is fun.I am fundamentally a builder; someone who loves to develop products, markets, strategy, organizations, people and culture. While I love thinking about the next great product and I can still code, in recent years I have spent most of my time building great organizations, great people and great cultures that create great business results. I'm proud of the organizations, people and cultures that I help create.I am very results-oriented. On my watch, great people are hired and/or developed, innovative and market-beating products are built, customers are delighted and business results are achieved. I make it happen with a combination of vision, business savvy, technical skills, organizational know-how, entrepreneurial drive and force of personality. There is nothing more satisfying than getting results.I want to win. Winning is creating innovative products and services, growing audience and audience engagement, growing the top line and the bottom line, and helping everyone around me advance. I am passionate about what I do and I go full speed every day. Did I mention that I want to win?I believe in hiring great people. People who are motivated, people who are passionate, people who want to deliver. I want the people who I work with to know that they are good but I also want them to improve. I want them to be satisfied but still hungry. I want to help them getter better, and I want to get better too.I founded Profound Commerce in 2019 to pursue the incredible opportunity of e-commerce. Prior to Profound Commerce, I worked at five companies: pcOrder (subsidiary of Trilogy), MessageOne, Lombardi Software, RetailMeNot and Convey. As of September 2021, all five of these companies have had successful exits (2 IPOs and 3 acquisitions).

Bpm DevelopmentIbm Feb 2010 - Oct 2011Armonk, New York, Ny, UsAt IBM by way of its acquisition of Lombardi, I was one of three people who drove the effort to revamp the BPM development team with the explicit goal of turning it into a group that could deliver great results, i.e. products that had coherent value propositions, created real business value, were usable and actually worked.In concert with a small, hand-picked team of heritage IBMers and Lombardos, I completely revamped the group's governance, processes and tooling. Through high standards and a focus on "real" results (e.g. shipping product, revenue growth, profitability, customer acquisition, customer satisfaction), I also dramatically impacted the culture. On the human front, I worked hard to recognize and reward top performers, weed out bad people and optimize the human resources of a 450-person software development organization.The result of this effort was two-fold: a dramatically more capable organization and IBM Business Process Manager, the leading product in the BPM market. IBM BPM marries the ease-of-use and business-user-centric approach of Lombardi with the hard core transaction processing capabilities and scale of IBM. IBM BPM is now one of the fastest growing products in the IBM Software portfolio, growing at more than 25% per year off a multi-hundred million dollar revenue base. In the words of one heritage IBMer, cribbing from Lou Gerstner, I made "the elephant dance" in a way that he had never seen in his 20-year career at IBM. It definitely was a team effort, but I was one of a few people who made it happen. -
