My position on the North American management team comes with many responsibilities. As Senior Vice President Service Strategy, I am responsible for introducing new service offerings in North America. This includes the full spectrum of go to market activities from conceptualizing the service offering and building a business plan through to early client acquisition and delivery. I also chair the North American Marketing Committee and assist in developing our acquisition pipeline.

President and co-founder of nonlinear creations, a long-lived digital agency. Starting in 1995, Shannon Ryan and I crafted a digital agency that eventually included operations in Canada, the United States, the United Kingdom and Brazil. The details of my role as President evolved as the company did and included such responsibilities as Chief Financial Officer, Chief Marketing Officer, and Senior Sitecore Consultant.I am grateful for, and take great pride in:THE TEAM. Dozens of the team elected to stay with nonlinear through 10 years or more of their careers. It is humbling that they were willing to dedicate so much of their life to our common cause.THE VISION. Painting a picture of the future matters – to all team members. We never believed geography is destiny. Envisioning a multinational presence from day one let us drive the team to a better future.PERSISTENCE. Business cycles come and go. Sometimes terrorists fly planes fly into buildings; sometimes Wall Street forgets that mortgages carry risk. The nonlinear team persisted through almost a quarter century, overcoming all obstacles, and of that I am exceptionally proud.THE OPPORTUNITY. The internet has changed everything. The internet is STILL changing everything. To have had the chance to play a real role in the most-important technical and cultural shift since the printing press has been and continues to be an honor. In 2017, I led a year-long process in which we reviewed strategic opportunities and managed the sale of nonlinear to Valtech, a digital agency whose global vision paralleled our own.

Co-founded this digital analytics company and played a key role in attracting $20M USD in venture capital to scale the company. As the .com boom came to an end, I faced the challenge of "un-scaling" the company and identifying strategic options for the initial investors. In 2003, I managed the sale of the intellectual property assets of the company to Watchfire (later acquired by IBM) and the transformation of Buystream into a publicly-traded oil and gas corporation.
