Global Director of Solutions & Services, Saffron AI

Researched the business feasibility of capturing air and water quality data at the edge (at the point of consumption) for residences and office spaces.

Entrepreneur in Residence, Intel New Business Initiatives

I led a team of Sales professionals - Account Executives, Sales Engineers, Solution Architects, and Inside Sales Reps.  We provided the platform that turned APIs into well-managed APIs - a cornerstone of Social, Mobile, Analytics, and Cloud (SMAC).  And not to forget... IoT (Internet of Things) architectures.  

I consider it our job to create a superior buying experience for the companies we engage.  This starts with developing an empathy and understanding of their business goals, architectural disposition, and technical challenges.  It then leads to a collaborative pursuit to unlock value. And then, when it all comes together, we've established a true partner (versus a vendor) relationship.  We've had the honor of doing this for a number of amazing companies.

Personally, I'm tasked with hiring top talent, setting our direction, building a learning organization, and empowering the field reps to compete effectively in the field. 

We created this space and we remain at the top of the pecking order.  This is largely because we've been fortunate to work with an exceptional set of customers.
