About
I have been building and investing in innovative startups for over 30 years. I joined Google with the acquisition of my startup company Android, which we built into the worlds most popular operating system. At Google I helped lead android development, helped create and grow our venture fund (GV) & I am currently building innovative products. Before Google I helped build the worlds first voice based personal assistant as co-founder of Wildfire Communications. We sold Wildfire to Orange where I was a VP of innovation and also started Orange Venture's - a corporate fund focused on communications and life style related investments. I have a doctorate in Computer Science from the University of Mass at Lowell.

- I have been fortunate over my career but it all started with a solid foundation laid at University of Massachusetts Lowell. The a strong academic education was complemented with a spirit of innovation and entrepreneurism. When the University reached for my support (and name) for the new School of Computer Science I was hesitant, but it really did define and set my trajectory. I am honored to be able to support the new school and look forward to working with the University leadership and faculty.

Context is so important in AI. It's essential for a more satisfying user experience, so you're not repeating yourself or the AI is anticipating needs based on past history. Context is also key to getting better results, knowing your preferences, your capabilities and your needs.
We built Ray as a personal trainer with context day one. Ray knows you your goals every past workout and with every future workout learns more about your abilities what you can and can't do and where you should be pushed.
Give Ray a try and start achieving your fitness goals.
