Sometimes, when people talk about the Internet of Things it can get a little fuzzy. But Honeywell has got the Things. Our products and services make building owners more productive and efficient, and improve building occupants’ experiences. We’re already in 10M buildings worldwide and growing. We’ve got one of the world’s largest portfolios of proven comfort, security, and integrated systems. We’re Honeywell Connected Buildings. We are shaping the next generation of technology with products and services that help owners and occupants put their buildings to work. Frank’s current responsibilities include developing, deploying, communicating, and iterating Honeywell’s Connected Building strategy; quintupling ACS’s building software and SaaS businesses; and leading Honeywell’s Smart Building Score initiative.

Prior to this role, Frank served five years at Honeywell and fifteen years at GE in several roles, including Vice President of Strategy and Marketing, General Manager, Plant Operations Leader, Product Director, e-Business Leader, Six Sigma Black Belt, and Purchasing Agent.  Frank worked with Honeywell Building Solutions, Honeywell Environmental and Combustion Controls, GE Appliances, GE Security, and GE Power Generation in three countries and six US states. In 2009, he left GE and came to Honeywell to settle his family in Minnesota (USA).

Frank has a Master’s Degree in Mechanical Engineering from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA), a Bachelor’s Degree in Mechanical Engineering and Materials Engineering from the University of California at Berkeley (USA), and a mini-MBA from the University of Saint Thomas in Minnesota.  He is married with three children, and is an avid reader, volleyball player, ex-card counter, and amateur bio-hacker.
