Turning Foresight into Technology and Product Strategy

Major platform shifts emerge when capabilities converge, not from a single breakthrough. My work across five industries, aerospace, automotive, consumer electronics, telecommunications, and advanced technology, has been the same: identify those moments early and translate them into technology roadmaps, product strategy, and capital allocation decisions that position organizations ahead of what comes next.

My foundation is technical. I began working on acoustics and dynamics problems at Sikorsky, building signal processing algorithms and focusing on acoustics, vibration, and real-time stability in tightly coupled physical systems. This work required systems thinking across and operating under real-world constraints. That same approach informed software platforms and UX at Harman, where I anticipated the convergence of sensing, machine learning, and human-machine interfaces years before the industry caught up, then carried into wireless and video platform strategy at InterDigital, where I helped place 6G and AI bets years before mainstream adoption.

Most recently, I built Nokia Technologies' Emerging Technology function from the ground up within the CTO Office, standing up a $35M R&D portfolio across quantum networking, AI, and 6G. Today, as Venture Partner at Silicon Foundry, a Kearney company, I lead investment diligence across quantum computing, AI, and edge computing for corporate and institutional clients, deciding what's real, what's hype, and what's ready to build with.

That same lens shows up in ClusterFunk, an AI research practice I founded to map technical momentum across research signals and identify where the next platform shifts are forming.
