Open to executive roles and fractional engagements

Technology leadership that ships.

Enterprise architecture · Cloud & data platforms · AI-forward engineering leadership

I lead architecture, engineering, and data organizations that modernize how media and advertising businesses build software. Over 20+ years — from Executive Director of Architecture at Comcast Advertising to VP of Global Infrastructure at FreeWheel — I've turned sprawling application portfolios into cloud-native, event-driven platforms and built the governance and teams to sustain them. Today, through Gentoo Solutions, I help companies do the same: pragmatic architecture, AI/ML enablement, and engineering organizations that deliver.
