Board Director & Strategic Advisor helping technology companies scale hardware + software platforms
About Me
I'm an independent board director and strategic advisor to technology companies building and scaling hardware, software, and service platforms. I serve on the board of Loop Global and advise growth-stage companies through Resolve Strategy.
Over 30+ years I've held CEO, Chief Product Officer, and VP/GM roles. Previously, as Chief Product Officer and SVP Product at ChargePoint (2018–2023), I led product and business strategy as the company moved from private to public, with revenue growing from $80M to $500M. Earlier, I was CEO of Kiptronic, a venture-backed startup acquired by Limelight Networks, and led product portfolios at Plantronics, Avaya, and Mitsubishi Electric.
I work with CEOs, founders, investors, and leadership teams to align product strategy, business models, and organizations to scale. My advisory work spans 30+ technology companies across EV infrastructure, IoT, enterprise software, and connected consumer 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.
