CEO, This Way Global

Bio

Founder/CEO of ThisWay Global, an international, VC-backed HR tech company that was incubated at ideaSpace – University of Cambridge, UK, with new offices now in the US. ThisWay’s team is comprised of experienced entrepreneurs, global PhD’s in the areas of machine learning and AI, as well as talent from across the globe.

Over the last twenty years, I have founded and built three companies, in sectors that range from architecture to the licensing industry. The common core in each has been my ability to build consensus amongst stakeholders, whether they be individuals, businesses or international governments.

I am a recognized thought leader on the topics of “Diversity and ROI” and “AI in the new world of work.”

Without knowing my history, it would seem that the leap from land development to tech development is a big one. However, ThisWay is the manifestation of my drive to solve big problems. As early as 1992, when I founded the Texas A&M College of Architecture Career Fair, through my award-winning land development plan in the early 2000s, I have always sought to find meaningful solutions to big challenges.
