Senior solutions architect and executive architecting telecom, IoT, and cloud products that drive revenue.
What I'm looking for
I’m a senior solutions architect and strategic executive with 25+ years across telecom, IoT, SaaS, and marketing automation. I focus on identifying real problems and architecting viable products that drive revenue and growth—not ideas built only to generate revenue. As VP, Global Business & Cloud Solutions Architect, I incubate R&D for the Compete Safe Youth Injury Prevention System and related patents, including IoT design, baseline establishment, event monitoring, and recovery reporting.
Earlier, I owned Impact Marketing’s turnkey MRM solution for fulfillment and complex variable-data marketing collateral, planning data and cloud architectures end-to-end. I’ve also built and deployed marketing communications portals as President / Solutions Architect, including multi-brand franchise portals and large-scale deployments, while leading niche telecom wireless interoffice infrastructure work with regulatory strategy, VC fundraising, financial modeling, and patent co-authorship.
