Board & Strategic Advisor helping technology companies scale hardware + software platforms
About Me
I'm a former CEO and Chief Product Officer with more than 30 years of operating leadership experience and advisory engagements with 30+ technology companies.
I work with CEOs, founders, and leadership teams to align product strategy, business models, and organizations to scale complex hardware and software platforms.
My background spans operating roles at companies including ChargePoint, Plantronics, Avaya, Mitsubishi and Limelight Networks, along with advisory engagements across EV infrastructure, IoT platforms, enterprise software, and consumer electronics connected devices.
Who I work with
Growth-stage companies ($10M–$200M)
Private equity and growth equity portfolio companies
Hardware + SaaS platforms
Companies preparing for scale or exit
Where I Help Most
Technology companies often reach inflection points where scaling becomes more complex.
I typically work with leadership teams navigating challenges such as:
Growth plateau after early success
Hardware businesses expanding into software and recurring revenue
Product portfolio complexity and unclear investment priorities
Product, engineering, and go-to-market misalignment
Evaluating new market opportunities and strategic partnerships
Organizational scaling during periods of rapid growth
These challenges require aligning product strategy, business model, and organizational execution.
If your company is navigating a strategic inflection point or scaling challenge, I’d welcome a conversation.
