When Scientist and Engineer Becomes One

I'm so honored to be appointed IBM Distinguished Engineer, Hybrid Cloud for Systems. I will have the opportunities to lead collaboration within IBM Systems and cross-unit with IBM Cloud & Cognitive and Red Hat to develop and deliver Hybrid Cloud & AI use cases, solutions and industry architecture.

Having blazed trails in the fields of science and technology, now I'm ready to march with thousands of IBMers, Red Hatters and partners to deliver innovation that matters: Hybrid Cloud for smart city, edge-to-core smart manufacturing, 5G-enabled autonomous driving, and high performance Data & AI to fight fraud, predict failure, detect pandemics and stop cancer.

For my mentors, coaches, leaders, co-innovators, friends and families, thank you!!

Looking back:

Growing up, I admired being an engineer, just like my mom who was the chief engineer for a factory.

In college, started in science but trying to figure out what to do

In grad school, majored in molecular biology and found myself liking computers more than test tubes.

As research scientist, use computers to decode human genome

At IBM, designed supercomputers, storage, and software to help scientists worldwide

Today, the scientist and engineer become one, and I know exactly what to do next: #innovationmatters
