I help businesses and entrepreneurs to see innovation with new eyes, so they can use advanced research and emerging technologies with a purpose, to create sustainable impact.

With 30+ years of experience spanning iconic brands, Fortune 100 companies and early-stage ventures, I have delivered business outcomes across many industries.

A passion for developing people & culture has driven me to build and lead high-performing, global teams that have created award-winning digital products and ecosystem partnerships, delivered industry-first innovations, and accelerated adoption of disruptive technologies and business models.

Through Nexial Group, I channel that experience and background into a unique blend of technical expertise, strategic vision, and creative problem-solving that allows me to bridge the gap between innovation and implementation.

I am also an educator, startup mentor, patent-holder/inventor, and bilingual international speaker & author.

I earned a Master of Science degree in Information Systems (Mobile Computing and Networking), and hold Certificates in Innovation Management and Strategic Foresight. I am also a Fellow at the Georgia Institute of Technology, and a Professor at the GA Tech Scheller College of Business.

As a curious lifelong learner, I have pursued extended studies in AI, Leadership, Design Thinking, Neuroscience and Bio-inspired Design (Biomimicry).

I serve as Board Member for several non-for-profit organizations, and was also Industry Advisor for the NSF iCorps program, and Founding Board Member & President for VMUG, a global technology user community.
