About

Building people and products that customers love! Learner @Life. Scrappy (hands-on) & Strategic Leader with a strong bias for ownership and outcome! As I reflect back over 20 years of doing the 'work', I have obsessed to solve customer problems in the areas of Cloud, Artificial Intelligence (AI), Identity, Security, Compliance, Privacy, SaaS Management, Secure Remote Access, and Customer Experience. I have had the pleasure of leading high-performing team(s) directly and cross-functionally. I like to find the right product to market fit and have had fun delivering products from inception to launch (0 to 1) and hack growth. I work well in areas of ambiguity, influence across organizations and teams, to focus and drive customer outcomes. * Global Leadership: - Drove shared vision, ideation, technical development, and launch of 16+ new and innovative products, leading 20+ direct products, and 300+ cross-functional engineering, operations, marketing teams at Microsoft, Citrix, Symantec, McAfee, and Dell. Led products that customers loved, making an impact on 108 Million active users, generating $2+ Billion annual revenue. * Technology Design and Innovation: - Invented/ patent filed with Artificial Intelligence (AI) based remote identification of user behavior for privacy and data protection. National level awards for the design of “Best social justice application” - Santa Clara Hackathon and “Emerging trend in IP Technology”- IETE. * Strategic Business Partnerships: - Created and leveraged with industry-leading cloud infrastructure and technology providers like AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud. Negotiated strategic deals for Citrix, Symantec, & Dell with OEM vendors and advised Merger & Acquisition deal sizes up to $2.25 Billion A few of my guiding philosophies: 1. People come first. I learned to lead with respect, collaboration, and influence 2. Don't just think; don't just act. Act thoughtfully -- keeping customers in mind. 3. Focus on jobs to be executed.
