Fayetteville, Arkansas, United States
Passionate problem solver, leading teams that span application to semiconductors - and everything in between. For me, solving the problem means building - or finding - all the pieces. From navigating complex supply chains to forging partnerships, I thrive to serve as a connector and consensus builder. My career has uniquely spanned working in the largest tech companies, to government, aerospace and entrepreneurship. While aerospace and electronics are in my roots, I love learning about the problems you can't solve, and working together to create not just a good solution - but a scalable one. The tools to accomplish this have allowed me to bring products to market, build manufacturing lines and advance technologies. But they also can be used to solve other big problems in the world. This is where I enjoy the opportunities to lead within organizations like IEEE, where I've built new models for cooperation through IEEE-USA's IWRC events that bring industry, workforce and research communities together. I've been honored to serve my community as a City Council Member since 2019, helping navigate scale challenges in a quickly growing community. And, this drive has let me create 501c3s that support community to regional and national initiatives. Lets connect and solve a problem together - from controlling a jet engine to developing our next technical and community leaders.
