I am a Technology Evangelist, Speaker, Board Advisor and Executive Coach, who is passionate about encouraging leaders and companies to discover their purpose, mission and values. I'm gratified when my work results in a thriving business culture that creates a positive business outcome. In 2003, I formed a team of talented communication professionals to pioneer VoiP communications and found SimpleSignal. The team's dedication to its unique culture, relentless innovation and focused execution took SimpleSignal's Unified Communications (UCaaS) technology from a struggling start up to a leader in the communications industry. Our vision made us one of the first VoiP service providers that made voice integrations into software as a service (SaaS) and mobility. We are known for being cloud technology pioneers that enabled a new way for people to work...anywhere, anytime. SimpleSignal won dozens of awards and national recognition. Among them the Frost and Sullivan North American Entrepreneurial Company of the Year and was named by Inc. Magazine as one of the 5000 fastest growing companies in America for four consecutive years (2011,’12,’13 and ’14). In April of 2015, SimpleSignal was acquired by Vonage (VG) My wife and I reside in the sleepy little beach town of San Clemente California where I keep my collection of cool hats.Specialties: Executive advisory work, Corporate Culture, Business Strategy, Executive coach, Board leadership, Keynote Speaking, Unified Communications as a service, UCaaS, SaaS, VoIP, Cellular, CPasS, Mobility, Video Communications and Conferencing Technologies, Virtualization and Managed Services, Business transformation.
