About me

I am a semi-retired senior consultant / advisor to a leading major petrochemicals company in the Middle East. Included in that part of my career were detailed assignments in the development of a new R&D organization, the development of s technology strategy process linking SBU's and the technology arms. Earlier career elements included senior roles as a research manager in an industrial organization and in a contract services organization. The first stage of my career was as a scientist leading to extensive experience in energy, petrochemicals, environmental and related disciplines.
