President and Chief Executive Officer, SPX Corporation

I am a technology guy at heart, living in Charlotte, married with two teenage kids. I started in software consulting, with strategy consulting and venture capital experience before moving to operating businesses. The project I am most excited about is with the spinout of our company - we have been able to start a $1.5 billion dollar business from scratch. This included building the team, the strategy, as well as many other areas including our global brand.
