Visionary Board Director | AI Transformation Catalyst | Scaling Value Creation through People-First Innovation | Expert in Unifying Teams & Technology to Disrupt Markets | Thought Leader for Board-Level Strategy
I have spent my career at the intersection of complex mathematics, industrial scaling, and human-centric innovation. From developing algorithms for noninvasive medical testing at Battelle to co-founding BCMI—a cloud-based ecosystem that unified North America’s top construction materials producers—my focus has always been the same: using disruptive technology to solve “unsolvable” industry challenges.
Today, as the landscape shifts from mobile and SaaS toward an AI-driven frontier, I am pivoting my focus from “working in the company” as a founder and executive to “working on the company” at the Board level.
My Strategic Value to a Board: The AI Pivot for SaaS & Mobile: I understand the DNA of software. Having led the transition from legacy ERPs to mobile-first cloud platforms, I provide boards with the technical foresight needed to navigate the high-stakes shift into AI and machine learning.
Leadership to a Common Goal: My work with BCMI proved that technology is most powerful when it brings people together. I specialize in building collaborative ecosystems where industry leaders, technology, and talent align toward a singular, disruptive vision.
Global Governance & Scalability: With experience overseeing global business IT operations across 14 countries and 1,600 sites for Hanson PLC, I bring a disciplined perspective on fiduciary oversight, architecture, and global risk management.
A “People-First” Philosophy: I believe that technology without human alignment is a stranded asset. My leadership style centers on empowering the people who drive the data, ensuring that digital transformation creates both cultural and shareholder value.
Background & Authority: My foundation is built on deep technical rigor—holding Master’s and Bachelor’s degrees in Mechanical Engineering from The Ohio State University and multiple patents with General Motors. Whether authoring industry white papers for SAP or architecting venture-backed software startups, I bring a “first-principles” approach to every boardroom discussion.
I am looking to partner with forward-thinking boards where I can provide strategic mentorship, technical foresight, governance, and a visionary roadmap for companies ready to lead the next wave of industrial AI transformation.
