Born in upstate New York, Umberto Nardolicci is a computer
engineer and businessman. After completing service with the US Navy in 1986, he
worked as an engineering consultant at Johns Hopkins University, Applied
Physics Laboratory in the Advanced Systems Design Group. He received his degree
in Computer Science and Information Systems from the State University of New
York (ESC) and, after some brief independent consulting “gigs,” co-founded
Systems Made Simple (SMS) in 1991. He managed daily operations and P&L
responsibilities within SMS for 20 years as Chairman of the Board, President,
and principal founder. During his tenure, SMS evolved from a ‘garage startup’
to an industry-leading Federal Health IT Company with employees nationwide and
over 350 million in sales. SMS achieved INC 5000 honors six years running, with
INC 500 honors in two of those years until its “Entrepreneurial American Dream”
sale to Lockheed Martin in the Fall of 2014.
During his five-year forced sabbatical from Health IT, he focused his full-time
efforts on writing War of Fear. He put a great deal of research into this
effort, which actually spans over 40 years, and began with his initial foray
into martial arts and the teachings of Eastern philosophies.
Nardolicci is a disabled veteran, like his father and one of his two sons. He
also has numerous relatives and friends who are veterans or currently serving
in the military. He is committed to supporting veteran organizations such as
the Wound Warrior, Tunnels2Towers, Nardmoor, and the DAV.
