Grew up in New Jersey and spent 10 years at Cornell University, in Ithaca (upstate New York) before moving to Sydney to write my dissertation. After finishing my doctorate (mechanical systems, Computer-Aided Design) I worked in spatial IT systems (CAD, GIS). I moved into management consulting for manufacturers and later into equity-level strategy and M&A work, then founded an outsourced marketing agency, all specialised in tech/TMT/ICT industries. I have a beautiful daughter, Saskia, born in 1999. I'm now consulting with a range of technology businesses including startups, 2nd-tier firms and larger - but always looking for the next project and role!
