People invited me into high-potential situations. Together, we created more than people expected - within businesses, in government, in research and development, for the environment, and for society.

 

I have worked with large and small enterprises in aerospace, agricultural research, biotech, business services, computing, defense, education, energy utilities, government, healthcare, high technology, innovation, insurance, Internet, law enforcement, politics, research and development, telecommunications, and venture capital.

 

My roles have included …

  • Executive leading a US$1-billion-per-year, 2,000-person business unit.
  • Co-CIO (co-chief information officer) for the United States federal government’s Executive Branch.
  • Program leader catalyzing innovation throughout a $6 billion corporation.
  • Corporate officer and advisor for startups.
  • Developer of information systems.
  • Professorial Lecturer; university Extension Instructor.
  • Business advisor and innovation consultant.
  • Organizational development or change management practitioner.
  • Not-for-profit board (of directors, trustees, or advisors) member.
  • Physicist, applied mathematician, or similar.

My education includes …

  • PhD, Physics - University of California, Berkeley
  • BS, Mathematics - California Institute of Technology
  • Public Utility Executive Program - University of Michigan
  • Financial Management and Engineering Economy for Public Utilities - Stanford University

Results to which I contributed include …

Information about some of my physics research …

  • This work suggests progress regarding each one of four multidecade physics challenges: {1} catalog known and suggest new elementary particles (high energy physics); {2} specify dark matter (astrophysics); {3} describe dark energy (cosmology); and, {4} catalog properties - such as charge, mass, and spin - of objects (general physics). When combined with popular modeling, the new modeling that this work includes helps explain data that popular modeling alone seems not to explain.
