Biography

In 2001, with the European Union switching to one currency called the Euro, I worked with France Telecom, living in Paris, France, to develop the first international money transfer service, Minutepay.fr, before PayPal could enter the marketplace.

In 2002 I started The Planning Studio Inc., a startup focused on developing web-based networked collaboration technologies for urban planning and communityThe Planning Studio development corporations to help them in their mission to serve the community, since many non-profits lack the resources to build their own infrastructure. It starred Sean Bender from University of Cincinnati, Susan Winterberg from Harvard University and myself.

In 2008 I joined Microsoft in their BPOS R&D division to help build the next platform for Microsoft business applications. This includes Microsoft Office Online, Microsoft @EDU, Exchange Server, and much more. If you are interested, try it out for yourself.
