In addition, as a recognized thought leader in the Smart / Connected Cities and IoT / IoE space, I've worked with 40 cities across 19 countries and the State of Illinois to build new paradigms and drive transformation. I also continue to provide IoT subject matter expertise and technical / business due diligence for a range of PE and VC investment firms.

My focus is a compelling vision paired with swift, seamless execution. I believe that it's critical in an emerging marketplace - like IoT - to deliver clear, rapid wins to demonstrate value and ROI. I leverage my ability to recognize the potential of small initiatives and transform them into major achievements that demonstrate our capabilities and serve as reference points to rapidly grow new business.
