I am a technology and partner leader with more than 20 years of experience helping organizations migrate, modernize, and innovate in both Data Center and cloud-based Data & AI solutions.

More

My current focus is on developing go-to-market programs, building partner ecosystems, and supporting customer adoption across the Amazon Web Services platform. At AWS, I work across field, product, marketing, and partner teams to scale the reach and impact of AWS and partner database, analytics, and GenAI offerings. I emphasize clarity, consistency, and collaboration—translating business objectives into practical execution that delivers measurable results. Throughout my career with AWS, House of Brick, IT Partners, and Novell/SUSE, I have guided teams, shaped partner programs, and developed repeatable approaches that support modernization and long-term customer success. My approach is deliberate, outcome-oriented, and grounded in collaborative execution, while my agenda is to make my team, colleagues and partners successful through an "essentialized," "multipliered," and "impact player" approach.
