I can advise on new technology commercialization; profitable business management over a broad B2B industrial base of products and professional services; and preparation/implementation of business and marketing plans in high-tech, high-growth environments.

I've served as the Industry Mentor for multiple NSF I-Corps Teams (national) and I-Corps Sites (regional) programs, and as a Pod Mentor for multi-team groups in I-Corps regional hub cohorts.
