Dawit Lessanu
Planet Earth and NYC
Born in Ethiopia, imported and raised in the US. I'm trying to experience and love the world we live in.
Professionally I am an experienced information technology consultant with 16 years of full application life cycle management (ALM/SDLC), agile, process improvement and architecture. Experience across diverse industries, including government, military, defense, brokerage, finance, and accounting. Combining technology and business strategy I have successfully led organizations to improve productivity, increase efficiency, and grow revenue.
if you want more professionalism go check my LinkedIn profile.
Currently I'm Chief Architect for the Associated Press and Director of Research & Innovation.
In my parallel life I'm a husband, dedicated father and budding artist. I dabbled in writing and animation so check out my website Maatkara. It was a great experience and we were pioneers. I'm currently struggling with Water and Acrylic mediums (wish me luck).
I love Tabasco sauce, good coffee and incorporating fundamental bhuddist philosophy into my life. Mix that with good eats, vigorous discussion and fitness and you have a good recipe for personal success (Mind, Body and Soul).
