Bio

I am an intellectually curious person who is always seeking to understand “why”. Why a problem exists. Why something works. Why the problem needs to be solved. And, once I determine the “why”, I enthusiastically share my knowledge. My career is an example of somebody who likes to help others understand, work with, and adopt new technology for better business outcomes. Over the course of my career I have consistently worked on emerging technologies that deliver strong business outcomes. My passion for sharing my knowledge is evident as an evangelist, thought leader, and trusted advisor. I am a collaborative thought leader who strives to include a 360 degree view of any issue, an evangelist who passionately shares knowledge and welcomes discussion, and a trusted advisor to executives and creators. As a young software engineer, I worked on new and innovative technology that impacted the world. Speaking around the globe about new product categories fueled my desire to learn more and share more. My enthusiasm for collaboration and sharing knowledge became my trademark while working as an industry analyst. Because of my talent for distilling complex technical concepts into meaningful business discussions, I earned the trust and confidence of executives from the largest of companies to the smallest of startups. I thrive on creating a point of view and working to advance that idea. Kolbe A Index 5-3-7-6
