Professor Denekamp ended my first business strategy class by saying "always seek the point of highest opportunity." His teachings are why I've consistently been among the first to identify the business value of emerging technologies such as then nascent social media, geolocation, mobile, behavior-driven analytics and now Web3.

​

Technology, media and shopper behaviors change but the core function of a business to sell more products to more people more frequently is unchanged. My passion comes from recognizing "yesterday's" solutions are no longer effective because of change then building and implementing the new models that drive measurable financial results.

​

My focus for the last 10 years has been leading digital transformation initiatives within Google, AT&T, Infiniti, Carnival, IBM, Discover Financial, Victoria's Secret, Lyft, Boston Beer and others. Today it's building a customized Web3 foundation based on three years of immersing myself in the technologies and applications focusing on what can deliver measurable business value, e.g. AR commerce, and what won't in the near future, e.g. NFTs.

Below are select awards and articles written about me along with my writings to provide context on how I've spearheaded transformation across a variety of industries. Talking with smart people is one of my true joys so please send me a message if you've made it this far.
