Senior Director, Product Engineering and Architecture

Xchanging provides human resources, technology, procurement management, insurance claims processing and settlement services.

I got into the software engineering field because I enjoy the challenge of solving complex problems and the satisfaction of building things. Recognizing that executives and technologists frequently do not communicate clearly, I pursued a business degree to position myself to bridge that gap. My strength is being able to work with business leaders to understand their goals and lead a team of engineers to realize that vision, including finding the right balance between the competing objectives of cost, time to market, functionality, and technical excellence. My passion is using those skills to apply technology to make a difference. I have played just about every role in software development over the years, including: – Programmer – Database specialist / DBA – Project manager – Business / systems analyst – Application Architect – Solution Architect My understanding of the perspectives of all of each of these professionals enables me to facilitate resolution of cross-disciplinary issues and mentor staff across these specialties.
