Strategic Advisor
Competencies: Re-Industrialization Strategy | AI Operating Models | Cloud & Data Center Infrastructure | Venture Turnarounds | Risk Management | Creative Finance | Global Supply Chain Sovereignty | Robotics | Advanced Manufacturing | I am an Industrialist and Strategic Operator who builds the business logic behind advanced technology. My career is defined by a single obsession: operationalizing innovation to achieve "impossible" financial results. I bridge the gap between technical possibility and the P&L, ensuring that advanced operating models are as robust as the AI solutions they support. To the outside observer, my path from Cloud Infrastructure (Google, Equinix) to Industrial Robotics (Starbot) may look like a pivot. In reality, it is a convergence. • The New Data Center is Mobile: My background managing global infrastructure for IBM, HP, and Equinix is the direct foundation for my robotics work. I view a robot as "edge-bundled compute"—a mobile data center that requires the same rigorous capacity planning, thermal management, and economic modeling I applied at Google. • Supply Chain as an Operating System: At PCH International, I managed supply chains for the world's best brands. Now, I am vertically integrating that chain to build a sovereign US robotics ecosystem. My approach drives value across three core pillars: 1. Architecting the "Rocks to Robots" Ecosystem As Co-Founder of Starbot Labs and Induxtrious, I am executing a strategy for US reindustrialization. 2. Enterprise Scale & Creative Finance I do not just sell technology; I structure the economic logic that makes it buyable. As a Cloud Value Advisor at Google, I architected Creative Finance models for over $6B in strategic deals. 3. Transformation & Turnarounds I specialize in taking ventures from "ad-hoc craziness" to standardized, repeatable structure. • SaaS Turnarounds: At LeanLaw, I led Corporate Dev and deployed a maturity transformation framework that fixed root-cause operational issues, driving 40% YoY growth and pivoting the company to an AI-first roadmap. • Operational Efficiency: At ZoomSystems, I led the turnaround of a distressed fleet of 1,000+ retail robots. By restructuring the field service and financial operating model, I improved profitability by $7M and secured a strategic acquisition. • Impact Based EdTech: At BYJU’S/Osmo, I directed global operations, integrating diverse business models to support social and economic needs across cultures.
