As Chief Data Officer at BAM, I lead the firm's global data organization, named the Data Intelligence Group. DIG is a centralized team of Data Scientists, Applied AI leads, Data Sourcing experts, QC analysts and Data Platform Architects & Engineers who service all of BAM's PMs and investment strategies, in addition to our excellent tech org and business side teams. Our mission is to provide our PM teams with a competitive advantage thru data, insight, engineering and AI. We do this by being laser focused on our Investors' needs, leveraging new technology, and constantly questioning our status quo to ensure our efforts align to value creation and innovation. We deliver value thru tradable insights and predictions; building scalable data products; using the latest tech in our platforms; and aspiring to have a level of partnership so strong that our PMs and stakeholders would say they could not imagine working without it. We don't always get it right but we are constantly striving to improve. I have been fortunate to build data science, data collection, and quantitative research organizations at fintech firms, sellside shops and within large Fortune 500 companies, under the tutelage of some amazing mentors over the last 20+ years. Over that time I have managed organizations of 3000+ and teams of three. These roles have given me experience in managing commercial organizations, quant and investment research teams, technology teams, and corporate strategy. Former coder, current manager. I believe organizational health is a key differentiator for firms, and I am passionate about building great teams who think different, have high self-awareness and trust, eschew politics and drama, and can vigorously debate ideas to be the best. Hiring A-players, unlocking their potential, and watching them deliver with our Investors at BAM is my alarm clock. Technophile and Management Committee member at BAM.
