"Some" have called me a graphic communications industry visionary. Actually - not so much. I mostly listen to customers complain about how hard things are and explain that to developers and then sell that, which fools "some" into thinking I am actually clever. I have some experience in technical and marketing with a broad range of publishing work flow applications and technologies, with a background in sales, marketing, product development, and public relations. Because I listen to people brighter than I carefully, I can quickly understands how to deliver complex products such as global communication solutions that cross a wide variety of mediums from high-end print to interactive web content. If I did have one thing going for me, it would be that I posses a unique combination of creative talent and technical curiosity. I have experience in leading international teams to accelerate product development, differentiate their product offerings, and establish market leadership during the launch and ongoing product life cycle.

I am an internationally recognized speaker at seminars and conferences relating to marketing and technical topics in the printing and publishing industry. My presentations provide entertaining and thought provoking insight on a wide range of topics such as PDF (Portable Document Format), automated publishing work flows, color management systems, XML implementations.

I have worldwide experience in speaking at seminars, conferences related to marketing and technical topics in the printing and publishing vertical. I am frequently selected as an expert panelist on the subject of PDF related topics, automated workflow, color management, XML and most recently, color separation for the newspaper vertical and paper to PDF workflows for POD (Print On Demand).
