Currently I'm figuring out what's next by talking to all the smart people I can and advising several seed-stage startups. I lead teams that create value from data, build the infrastructure on which to storequery the data, and assemble the world-class teams and culture that make it all happen. My experience is very much industry-agnostic as I'm mostly interested in companies that have under-utilized data assets, or have mousetraps for building great datasets. I'm a strong believer that data science teams are best set up for success where there is tight organizational alignment with data infrastructure and BIreporting. Feedback I've received is that one of my differentiating skills is ) given a dataset, tease out what products can be built or what business questions can be answered, and ) give a business problem, identify the data needed to find a solution. I have a wide range experience across different industries and company stages.
