For more than 25 years, my work has focused on the intersection of people and technology, helping companies find ways to leverage the latest and greatest technology and tools in order to solve real, human problems – and to deliver enormous value quickly. You can see my detailed resume on LinkedIn.

I like to tackle hard projects: I’ve led digital transformations, replatformed tech stacks, launched mobile apps, built digital product management teams, and introduced new digital products. My superpower is simplifying complexity, helping teams identify, align, and achieve clear goals.

My work spans digital commerce (Best Buy, Target.com), D2C (Imperfect Foods, Wild Alaskan Company), and B2B/SaaS (NBC/SportsEngine, Justifi), and includes fintech, youth sports, electronics, and food. I’ve held executive positions at large and small companies, including my own startup; I’m experienced at scaling projects and processes to fit the needs of the business. 

My most recent StrengthsFinder assessment highlights Futuristic, Empathy, Achiever, Individualization, and Learner. This combination of skills has allowed me to be successful at companies of all sizes, helping get complicated projects unstuck by articulating a future vision and bringing out the best in the people around me. I believe how work gets delivered is as important (sometimes more important) than the work itself, and I excel at fostering relationships and culture.

When I’m not working, I love to spend time with my wife, Laura Zimmermann, and our kids, ride my bike, play tennis, travel, read, eat good food, and play music with my band, The Long Honeymoon. I live in South Minneapolis.
