Long-term Fortune 500 Manager (with technical skills) seeks new opportunities in Data Science and Analytics Leadership! I'm a dual Master of Engineering (Aero -Stanford) and Business (Finance - UM) and was a critical part of Ford's turnaround effort in the Global Total Cost Directorate. Currently, I've just transitioned to a new and exciting role managing an Autonomous Vehicle Program in conjunction with Ford NEXT and most recently managed a Data, Metrics, and Analytics section where I led a team to develop business intel (BI) analytics tools and metrics for enterprise leadership. I am the perfect project lead because I'm a creative visionary with regard to the use of customer analytics, information tools and agile methods. I both speak high-level business language and am a good technical mentor in detailed-level work. I currently use VBA, Alteryx, Qlik, and some SQLLite. I'm avidly pursuing the use of Python in Machine learning (including a nanodegree).Outside or work, I actively pursue a broad range of sports and fitness goals and engage in several creative and productive hobbies. I just love the process of watching a dream turn to reality - and enjoy engaging in the struggle to make things happen. Most of all, I love the creative art of taking ill-defined business wants and needs and turning them into working tools. Let's talk about exciting new opportunities.Strengths:Project Management-Business Intelligence-Business Processes-Data Analytics-Data Science-Change Management-Engineering-Cost-Value Analysis/Value Engineering-Programming-Business Strategy-Business Development-Technology Evaluation-Finance-Leadership-Management-Consulting-Business Systems-Statistics-SixSigma-Quality-Simulation-CAE-Business Operations-Data EDL Systems-Databases-Vision Development-Ideation-Software Development-SPC-Mentoring and CoachingStrong Working Knowledge of:Automotive-Technology-Computinng-Software-Consulting-Python-Alteryx-Qlikview-Office
