Lab41 is a “challenge lab” where the U.S. Intelligence Community comes together with their counterparts in academia, industry, and In-Q-Tel to tackle big data challenges.As Senior Manager at Lab41, I am the primary connection between our deeply technical staff and the broader Big Data community. My role is a hybrid between traditional business development and marketing management roles at other companies. Specifically, I am responsible for:•Conducting outreach to industry and academic partners.

Here’s some of our work (https://github.com/lab41)•Publishing and promoting content on Lab41's website (https://www.lab41.org/about/) and blog (https://gab41.lab41.org/).

In-Q-Tel identifies startups with the potential for high impact on national security. We do this by working side-by-side with the venture capital community to identify great startup technology for our customers. We then invest in these companies to adapt technology to better fit the needs of our customers.As a Program Manager at In-Q-Tel, I was responsible for maintaining and managing our portfolio company’s relationships with the Intelligence Community. In practice this meant that I was responsible for:•Relationship building. IQT Program Managers are the primary point of contact for portfolio companies and their Intelligence Community customers. PMs handle careful creation of the technology delivery roadmap, development and measurement of success metrics associated with technological impact at customer organization, and anticipate customer needs.•Identifying customer needs and working with our portfolio companies to make sure that their products addressed those needs. Typically, companies hire product managers to do this job, but company PMs can’t walk the halls of 3-letter agencies asking people about their needs. My role was to leverage my strong relationships within the Intelligence Community in order to act as an effective extension of my portfolio companies’ product management arms. •Affecting high-quality solution transfer. The business of IQT is ultimately, to deliver technology in the hands of our customers. My responsibility was to make sure that company deliverables met our expectations and that the transfer of technology and knowledge occurred seamlessly.

The firm's 4th venture capital fund had committed capital of $90 million and required assimilation of investment data and performance metrics over the life of the fund. I created extensive models to compile data to outline key metrics such as net present value and internal rates of return of overall fund performance. Models will be used in firm's previous and subsequent funds to measure and capture key investment metrics and trends. They will also be used to market the fund's superior performance when raising capital for later fundsAs the 4th fund comes to a close, Grosvenor Venture Partners has decided to fund raise for a fifth fund. Crafted 2 pitch decks to be used to present to various institutions and endowments. These decks utilized my performance models and metrics to outline Grosvenor Venture Partner's superior investment performance within its over 20 portfolio companies. These presentation decks will be used throughout the raise for the 5th and subsequent funds.Portfolio company suffering from excessive cash burn and declining subscriber sales required my efforts with other investors and VCs on the Board of Directors to create and implement a strategy to conserve cash and plan for additional rounds of funding to achieve positive cash flow. Portfolio company continues to operate with 20% less cash burn per month and has experienced over a 10% growth in subscribers through viral marketing methods.

Managed team of 5 IT consultants during and post Tasman / Nortel acquisition to address growing needs of internal employees and remote users in areas of Windows domain transfer, profile migration, email setup and domain account creation. Completion of this project was mandatory in order for the $99.5 million Tasman acquisition.Developed and implemented company wide policies regarding issues such as network usage, hardware accountability, email restrictions, internet security, and information security. Virus outbreaks and inefficiency due to hardware replacement or repair decreased significantly after policies were enforced.
