Member of the founding teams of Microsoft Outlook (released in 1997) and Microsoft Teams (general available in 2017). Most recently, I was the Platform Architect for the Microsoft Teams developer platform.Before those projects and in between, I did a bunch of other things: VP and GM of Search and Recommendations for Myspace, a division of Fox Entertainment and News Corporation, joining as part of the turnaround team in June of 2009. Our team launched a faster and much more capable internal search platform based on open-source search engine SOLR, a better and faster user experience, a new general-purpose platform for serving recommended content, and the metadata platform underneath Myspace Topic Pages and Facebook Mashup. (I won’t even try to explain what a “metadata platform” is. Very geeky.) Prior to MySpace, I was VP of Emerging Technologies for the Boston-area SaaS company Gomez, Inc., which purchased the Seattle startup Klir Technologies where I served as CTO. Prior to Klir, I was a senior vice-president at Expedia, Inc., responsible for Expedia.com and Hotels.com product management, product roadmap, and business analytics. Prior to Expedia, I spent over 16 years at Microsoft in a variety of senior technology and management roles. As general manager of the Natural User Interface group, I worked on advanced search and user interface technology for Windows, building on my experience as general manager of MSN Search. We launched MSN Search in 1998; by 2002 it had grown to over 100 million queries per day, well over $100M in annual revenue, and 34 international markets in 13 languages. Prior to MSN Search, I was one of the founding members of the team that designed and built the first two versions of Microsoft Outlook.Specialties: Software product roadmaps, product strategy, product requirements, software development lifecycle, aligning business and technology goals, cat herding.
