About

I am a visionary leader, highly skilled engineer, scientist, technical sales and marketing professional with a proven track record in product development, program management and sales related to the application of high technology to solve what people thought where impossible problems. I relish solving impossible problems and facilitate the execution of the solutions to these in a timely, cost effective and professional manner to enable my clients to achieve maximum success in their application of technology in their business or in the execution of their operational mission.

I am blessed with a proven ability for out of the box thinking. This is combined with a very broad education and experience base has provided my clients and employers truly unique and sometimes paradigm shifting solutions to their problems. I am experienced in raising venture and angel capital, strategic planning/sales management, business capture and execution management. These skills have allowed me to support the transition of technology from the lab into a startup businesses, and then to a publicly traded corporation. In business development I have a demonstrated ability to close and execute on intangible high risk research and development programs as well as on contracts to develop and deliver very complex analytical instrumentation and engineering systems.
