From 2002-2020 while at Smartrac (then acquired by Linxens), as VP of eGovernment Solutions, I led the design, patent development, and global deployment of secure identity solutions for more than 60 passport and national ID programs worldwide. My work spanned biometric inlays, secure chip integration, antenna design, and government-grade authentication technologies—partnering directly with sovereign authorities, system integrators, and personalization bureaus to deliver scalable, compliant, and high-assurance identity infrastructure across multiple continents.
