Profile & journey
A career shaped by solving complex problems and building through engineering, strategy and collaboration.
I have worked across the path through which technology strategy becomes real—from products and architecture to engineering teams, operations and executive leadership.
Explore the journeyBuilding technology businesses.
I’m a tech CEO with an engineering background and more than 20 years’ experience in strategy, business and technology consulting, product leadership and international operations.
I started out designing chips and electronic circuits and working with radio and satellite communications. Since then, I’ve built networks, developed products and platforms, and led technology businesses. I’m still curious about how things work and how we can make them work better.
Today, I lead Cloud Gateway. My interests also include economic development, education for young people and entrepreneurship.
How I think
Real strategy begins with diagnosis.
Strategy is not a list of ambitions or activities. It is a disciplined response to a real challenge—focused on the crux and expressed through coherent choices and action.
Find the crux
Strategy becomes useful when it identifies the constraint that matters most—and concentrates effort there.
Make coherent choices
A guiding policy concentrates resources, aligns capabilities and gives people a direction they can act on.
Build for reality
Ambition needs an operating model: clear choices, disciplined product thinking and execution that compounds.
Career journey
International perspective. Operational depth.
A progression from working directly with technology to leading the portfolios, teams and businesses built around it.
