About

With over 25 years of experience in IT, AI, GenAI, LLMs, high tech, healthcare, pharma, medical devices, and software, I am a senior global commercial leader and currently Chief Marketing Officer at Turing, serving as the Research Accelerator to all the leading AI labs to provide frontier data to power their foundation models towards superintelligence. Turing also works with enterprises to help them build and deploy Proprietary Intelligence to solve their toughest business challenges. My mission is to build and lead high-performing marketing teams that deliver data-driven insights, creative solutions, and measurable revenue-generating outcomes. As the former CMO of AKASA and marketing leader at Cognizant, I have successfully launched new websites, increased brand recognition, digital engagement, and share of voice, as well as negotiated and managed large international sponsorship deals. I have also led global support teams in product marketing, client programs, partner marketing, and diversity and inclusion marketing. I have direct experience in 40+ countries and a strong background in sales, marketing, and market development. I am passionate about driving growth and innovation with AI and empowering marketers to achieve their maximum potential in any role.

  • As Chief Marketing Officer at Turing, I led the brand’s transformation from a transactional staff-augmentation narrative to a category-leading AI infrastructure and data Research Accelerator trusted by the world’s top labs and enterprises. Over this period, Turing reached profitability and scaled revenues 3X, with clients including OpenAI, Google, Anthropic, and Meta, and access to a 4M+ expert network powering model training and evaluation.
  • I repositioned Turing as a strategic Proprietary Intelligence builder for Fortune 500 generative-AI programs—moving from “talent cloud” to end-to-end AI data and solutions—while launching thought-leadership platforms like AGI Icons to anchor our credibility with leading researchers.
  • In 2025, we had a massive increase in our PR coverage with nearly 10x the press mentions and stories and cemented this momentum with a $111M Series E at a $2.2B valuation, underscoring market confidence in Turing’s role in advancing foundation models and enterprise GenAI at scale.
