Chief Technology Officer at Firecrown | Chief Technology Officer at Firecrown
Summary
I'm a software executive, leader, and strategist. I'm an expert at guiding product roadmaps, technology strategy and building the right solutions to drive revenue or support business operations. I've worn many hats in my career; analyst, programmer, project manager, general manager, technology leader and strategist. As a result, I have a unique ability to manage multi-disciplinary projects and to navigate complex challenges. Some of my characteristics are: • I am a multi-linguist in technology and business. I speak fluent techie, financial analyst, product marketer, executive, trainer, salesperson, and demanding client. • Innovation is only possible with a well-developed capacity for failure. • Nuance is important. Binary thinking is restrictive and expensive. • I'm the calm one, especially while running toward fires. • Oftentimes, it's more important to know where you're not going than where you are. • Variety, intrigue, and challenge keep us growing. My current study obsessions are ethical hacking, flamenco guitar, data analysis with Pandas, and Logic Pro X. • I don't care who gets the credit. I just want to win. I love making new professional acquaintances. Reach out if you want to talk about technology, business or soccer (football).
