Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolWayne Burke is a seasoned technology and organizational leader with 11+ years delivering innovation across government, nonprofits, and industry, most recently as Deputy Chief Technology and Innovation Officer at NASA JPL and now owner of Lakeshore Products and AlumiRamp. He builds practical bridges between technologists and end users, leading programs in AI/ML, cloud, data visualization, and interoperability (notably advancing 211HSIS integration with healthcare). A non-traditional leader, he hires talent stronger than himself, creates transparent systems, and models healthy work-life balance—principles that improved mission delivery at JPL and civic engagement through the Open Forum Foundation. Equally comfortable revamping IT infrastructure for a family business or managing multi-project DARPA-style efforts, he combines holistic perspective, liaison skills, and relentless organization. Off-duty he’s an artistic roller skating national champion, which hints at the discipline and creative risk-taking he brings to complex problems.
