01 · Profile

A career spent on the side of the platform where failure is not an option.

I build the products that have to work the first time. Not because the marketing team said so. Because someone, somewhere, just dialed nine-one-one.

Twenty years across Intrado, Bandwidth, and earlier CTO roles taught me that mission-critical product is a different discipline. The roadmap is not the work. Reliability under load is the work. That mindset has compounded into platforms generating $365M+ in annual revenue, a global emergency services product spanning 38 countries at 85%+ margins, and the architecture that powers AT&T's nationwide ESInet.

Now I'm looking for the next stage: a VP Product role where the platform matters, the team can be built right, and the ambition is shipping something real.

02 · Operating Principles

Four convictions, earned in production.

— 01 —
The roadmap is never the bottleneck.
Stalled product means broken team structure, unclear priorities, or engineering allocation that doesn't match the mission. I diagnose the system, not the symptom. That is how a 3-to-4-year roadmap compresses to a twelve-month launch.
— 02 —
Margins follow architecture.
85% gross margins at Bandwidth, 70% at Intrado, weren't a pricing decision. They were the consequence of a platform built right the first time. Cloud-native, multi-tenant, standards-aligned. Architecture is a P&L decision.
— 03 —
Compliance is product-market fit.
In public safety, FedRAMP, CJIS, NENA i3, and FCC alignment aren't paperwork. They are how the platform earns the right to handle the call. Treat compliance as a feature and the procurement cycle stops being an obstacle.
— 04 —
Build for the worst night, not the demo.
Demos test the happy path. Mission-critical product gets tested at 3 a.m. during a hurricane. Every architectural choice, every roadmap trade-off, every team hire gets evaluated against the worst night the platform will ever face.
03 · Platform Architecture

Twenty years stacked.

Every layer was built to carry the one above it. Foundation work at Touchstar and NVOQ enabled fifteen years of network architecture at Intrado, which enabled the global cloud build at Bandwidth, which enables the AI-driven platform leadership today.

This is not a resume. It is a system diagram. Each platform layer carries weight from the layer below and bears load for the layer above. That is how a career compounds. That is how a product line scales from zero to $365M.

  Each layer represents a platform built end-to-end
  Metrics show the commercial outcome of that layer
  The vertical line is the data flow between them
