I'm passionate about people, technology and research.

Some of my favorite quotes:

"Far better an approximate answer to the right question than an exact answer to the wrong question" -- J. Tukey, 1962.
"Your title makes you a manager, your people make you a leader" -- Donna Dubinsky, quoted in "Trillion Dollar Coach", 2019.
