I'm a technologist specializing in IT lifecycle management across diverse domains, from MASINT-driven machine learning solutions to event-driven architectures for large-scale compute orchestration.I particularly enjoy new product introduction, bringing late-research prototypes through the product process, as well as delivering high-leverage process and technology improvements to established high volume products.
