About Us

Now working at the interface of academic research and industrial applications. I am active in hard tech startups, technology transfer, university-industry liaison, research partnerships, and industrial R&D and innovation.

For 5+ years, I carried out technology assessments and managed commercialization projects for MaRS Innovation. Projects were in areas ranging from biomedical signal processing, high speed analog electronics, high power electronics, electronic materials and solar energy. I sought out the most promising inventions, worked with patent agents to secure the IP, worked with inventors to continue prototyping and testing, obtained grant funding from government agencies, and engaged industry partners for partnerships, co-development and licensing.

I have wide ranging knowledge and experience in physical sciences, information technology (hardware) and computer software. Extensive experience communicating technical and scientific information to mixed audiences.

My experience includes managing customer relationships with European and North American clients: primarily follow-on sales, and technical support, as well as detailed technical design and proposals for new systems.
