Occupation Program Director, Standards & Emerging markets - IBM
Location Santa Clara, CA, United States
Introduction I am responsible for overseeing the management of IBM standards activities and leading IBM open source and standards program in the emerging markets. I have been working on open standards for over 10 years, both as a staff member of standards development organizations (SDO) such as W3C and as a representative for IBM. I have been involved in every aspect of the standards development process. This includes the technical, strategic, political, and legal aspects, both internal and external to an SDO and to a company like IBM. I was involved in the development of standards such as HTML and XML. I have also been involved in open source projects, such as Xerces, the XML parser developed by the Apache Software Foundation for which I was one of the lead architects.
