About

I build high-performing engineering organizations that turn complexity into clarity. With 20+ years leading cross-functional teams across advanced energy systems, software platforms, and AI-enabled workflows, I specialize in applying systems thinking to accelerate innovation, de-risk programs, and deliver measurable outcomes. At EnerSys, I directed a global team of 80+ across software, hardware, and compliance, aligning disciplines under a model-based systems engineering (MBSE) framework that reduced decision latency and improved delivery precision while strengthening cross-organizational alignment.. The same systems approach translates effectively into modern software and AI-enabled organizations by strengthening architecture, reducing rework, and improving how complex programs scale. I’m particularly interested in how AI can be thoughtfully integrated into engineering environments. I actively explore tools such as Python, n8n, and LLM-driven systems to enhance engineering workflows, improve traceability, and support better decision-making without losing the human judgment that complex systems require. Above all, I develop people. I’ve mentored engineers into leaders and built cultures where autonomy, accountability, and psychological safety drive sustained excellence. I’m currently exploring senior engineering leadership roles where systems thinking, responsible AI adoption, and empowered teams fuel innovation. Let’s connect if you're building something complex and need clarity, alignment, and momentum.

  • Investigated solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) formation in lithium-ion cells using Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR). My work involved using radio waves in conjunction with magnetic fields to study the structure of lithium-ion cells and why their discharge performance degrades over time.
