Technology Evangelist: For over 20 years, pioneered, conceived and built systems that have solved industrial, consumer and business problems. From hundreds of plastic products (including being the inventor of the plastic mailbox), to automated machines that robotically paint Provost buses in Canada to Samsung phones in Texas, to an on-line web app which tens of thousands of college students use everyday to help them find a job, to software that runs entire production and sales organizations, earning huge profits which otherwise, without the skills and know-how in the application of technology properly, would have not been possible. Each time, have written the specified from the idea. Outlined the solution and motivated the players. Then hired and managed a team to a successful conclusion. Sometimes the solution created is a product which has a ready market, and sometimes it is a system that solves a specific business problem particular to the business. With a diverse background and experience, from production of plastics to industrial and automotive painting to software application, to basic applied sciences, have helped businesses solve problems through applying and then building technological solutions that have saved or earned millions of dollars. 90% of technology projects fail. Why? Because they aren`t flexible enough in understanding that learning and improving is part of the process, and the unexpected must always be anticipated. Having a very clear longer-term vision helps of course, and the patience and financial ability to see it through, but having the right leader at the helm is absolutely essential, to drive, remind and inspire.
