Brian:

Engineering Executive

Building the future through bold ideas, practical execution, and principled leadership.

About Me

I’m Brian, an engineering executive, creative strategist, and relentless builder. I thrive at the intersection of innovation and execution—leading multidisciplinary teams to bring breakthrough products to life. With a foundation in hardware systems and deep experience in cellular, IoT, and DoD technologies, I specialize in turning complex technical visions into scalable, impactful solutions.

Over the years, I’ve built and led agile, high-performing teams across startups and government-contract environments, driven go-to-market strategies, negotiated key partnerships, and architected end-to-end product roadmaps—from first sketch to global deployment.

I’m also the founder of Endeavor Life, where my passions for storytelling, creative development, and digital innovation converge to empower the next generation of creators, thinkers, and doers.

Exploring the Future of Technology

My passion for technology extends beyond building products—it's about understanding where innovation is heading and how we can shape it responsibly. From artificial intelligence and edge computing to smart devices and immersive digital experiences, I stay at the forefront of emerging trends that are redefining how we live, work, and create.

I actively explore and integrate new technologies like generative AI, cloud-native development, and human-computer interaction into my work. These tools aren’t just upgrades—they’re enablers of new thinking, faster iteration, and broader impact. Whether in engineering or storytelling, I see technology as a collaborator, not just a utility.

I’m committed to using future-forward tech responsibly—ensuring it enhances human potential, fosters creativity, and empowers learning across disciplines.

Why I Lead

I believe engineering isn’t just about building things—it’s about building people, vision, and legacy. My leadership philosophy blends technical excellence with creativity, compassion, and boldness. I don't just want to push projects forward—I want to raise the standard for what’s possible.

Whether I’m drafting a product roadmap or writing a children’s book, I bring the same conviction: we are here to make things better—for our teams, our customers, and the world around us.
