As a relentlessly creative and enterprising CTO, I thrive on envisioning and delivering cutting-edge technology solutions that enable sustainable growth and create competitive advantage for Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) corporations.
This focus blends a futuristic mindset with strong business acumen, challenging convention, and pioneering tech solutions that empower businesses to navigate market dynamics, enable efficiencies for AEC practitioners, and elevate the customer experience, all of which has led to my becoming an industry influencer.
With a servant leadership style, and known for high EQ and relationship-building skills, I am passionate about collaborating with all stakeholders to find the right solutions, and inspiring, coaching, and mentoring my staff to exceed customer expectations without causing team burnout. The goal is building relational capital that results in loyalty.
In recent years, I have designed and instrumented sweeping IT organizational metamorphoses, leading comprehensive digital transformation strategies to bolster business agility, operational excellence, and profitability. In addition, under this guidance the IT organizations have accomplished several notable achievements, one of which has been the use of state-of-the-art AI design technology to be part of ground-breaking AI software development, bolstering company recognition in the industry.
An example highlight of my accomplishments was the unique creation of the “Dream Cabin”, a hotel room design technology that integrated IoT lighting and sleep monitoring devices to improve guest sleep quality.
As an enthusiastic public speaker, I love to impart exciting digital transformation insights for others in the industry. I am also dedicated to supporting the community with initiatives like the chairing of Stantec’s Charitable Giving Committee in Boston, and establishing Architecture and Design scholarships that nurture diversity in the AEC sector.
