About

I lead product and solutions marketing for high-performance computing and edge AI interface IP at Synopsys, shaping how the industry understands and adopts next-generation interconnect technologies. My work sits at the intersection of engineering and market strategy. I define narratives for complex technologies including Ethernet, PCIe, CXL, and 224G and 448G SerDes, translating them into clear value for hyperscalers, system companies, and silicon providers. I operate across the full stack of influence: • Positioning and go-to-market strategy for Interface IP portfolios • Executive messaging for product launches and industry events • Cross-functional alignment across engineering, sales, and partners • Industry engagement through conferences, media, and ecosystem collaboration Prior to Synopsys, I spent six years at Intel as an SoC Design Engineer, leading DDR physical design and contributing to multiple tape-outs across advanced nodes. That foundation allows me to bridge technical depth with market clarity. I thrive in environments where the technology is complex, the stakes are high, and the narrative matters.
