What a story.

Building a stealth augmented reality startup from Vancouver, WA into a high growth transformational business was a chance of a lifetime.  Four years later, 41 out of 100 Fortune 100 companies now rely on RealWear as their device of choice (Gartner/IDC). 

The rugged headset became the gold standard in industrial AR.

 

What I did: I worked directly with Honeywell, Mars, Microsoft, Goodyear and Zoom to drive our customer narrative into the market through strategic leverage.  It worked. Climbing the corporate ranks, receiving three promotions in just three years, it was a dream come true.  I was the single consistent marketing force from Series A funding to today's historic deployment with Ford Motor Company

Three Thing

Three Things to Remember.

1. I'M A FEARLESS LEADER.

 

(I'm all in.  I say "yes, and," then drive the ball forward fast with full buy-in and empowerment,.)

2. I'M WELL WORTH HIRING.
 

(I am fun to work with, fierce, and extremely adaptable)

3. I'M A MASTER STORYTELLER

 

(I'm already writing the story in my head during our alignment meeting.)

I graduated from the Iowa Writer's Workshop and the Columbia Leadership Institute to hone my skills as a leader and storyteller.  I have more than two decades managing people, coaching performance and excellence.

I have invaluable experience with evidence-based marketing, developing corporate and product message houses, narratives, talking points, positioning docs, gold decks, as well as entire BOMs for product launches (web sites, case studies, landing pages, etc).

I've taken my creative skills and applied them to modern digital marketing.  It is uncanny how my love of fiction throughout my childhood has translated so seamlessly into the world of business.  Does the message resonate?  It's all about the story.

Goodyear Drives Remote Collaboration with RealWear and Teams During Pandemic

Goodyear drives more remote collaboration to keep plants running with Microsoft Teams and RealWear assisted-reality wearable computers.

Satya Nadella Highlights RealWear's Use of for Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT) at Honeywell

At Microsoft Inspire 2020, a fully virtual conference, Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella's highlights the real world use case of a virtual factory acceptance test virtually in time of COVID-19 for frontline workers that occurred at Honeywell using RealWear HMT-1Z1 and HMT-1 on Microsoft Teams. The video shows the virtual signing of a document using Adobe. FAT requires many expert eyes on the solution before it is shipped and installed onsite due to the complexity of the setup and QA involved. There is a long list of people that require to sign off for the completion of the factory installation. FAT is a critical step in the factory automation journey. “Finally, we are innovating to support the more than two billion first-line workers around the world who during this pandemic have been critical including so many who are contributing to all the essential roles to keeping our society and economy functioning throughout. Workers at Honeywell factory in Houston, Texas, for example, are using Teams embedded in a wearable computer from our partner RealWear to livestream what they see to remote colleagues and experts while having hands-free conversations. This has allowed them to continue production in complete critical factory testing keeping engineers around the world engaged to ensure everything is built properly. And they can sign off on certifications directly within Teams.” http://bit.ly/RealWear-YouTube NOTE - This is a clip of a full keynote shared here for convenience. __________________________ Full video description (if needed) __________________________ RealWear®, the global leader in knowledge transfer solutions for industrial workers, introduced the HMT-1 rugged Android tablet in 2017.

Video Stabilization Demo

Firmware Release 12 enhances the HMT-1 by providing video stabilization supported apps. Most use cases for RealWear require our camera to either record video or stream point of view (POV) to remote experts via Microsoft Teams, Zoom, Webex, or hundreds of other RealWear optimized/approved remote mentor apps • This feature helps with productivity, production quality, equipment troubleshooting, first time fixes, real-time audits and inspections, and overall hands-free communication and collaboration via the HMT-1. • Until now the promise of head-worn cameras offering remote viewing and assistance has been questioned by the constant shakiness of the video feed. This has been true across the entire industry. • But now RealWear’s advanced video stabilization solves the problem for our customers, and enables the remote expert to focus on the imagery presented rather than the worry about a hard-to-watch/possibly nauseating video feed that is constantly moving. Benefits: • Remote experts can work better than ever with • Call to action for existing customer: • Update to Release 12 today to get this benefit __________________________ Subscribe to our YouTube Channel: http://bit.ly/RealWear-YouTube __________________________ Full video description (if needed) __________________________ RealWear®, the global leader in knowledge transfer solutions for industrial workers, introduced the HMT-1 rugged Android tablet in 2017.
