I played classical violin for 15 years. I’m passionate about science and technology. I’ve had an excellent track record creating predictive models to help meet government KPI’s, articulating the value of robust technical solutions and identifying area white space. Finding the right tone and learning to synchronize will serve me well as I look forward to help solve industry challenges in the future.
