As a marketing executive with global experience, I build and manage marketing teams that establish brand awareness/market leadership and contribute to revenue. After technical and sales roles, I came to marketing that has taught me the importance of alignment across functions.

It’s also the best domain to learn and leverage my two primary interests: the transformative power of technology, as well as customer experience and interactions.
