I turn breakthrough innovation in AI, High-Performance Computing (HPC), and Quantum Computing into market-leading businesses.

More

Operating at the intersection of deeply technical architecture and commercial strategy, I have a 20+ year track record of incubating new business engines to $100M+ at technology giants and pioneers like Google, Intel, Dell, and Cray. Currently, I drive scale strategy for Google Cloud's most advanced HPC and Generative AI platforms, democratizing leading-edge compute for everyone from frontline engineers to the C-suite. My distinct advantage is a true "full-stack" perspective—spanning from silicon-level hardware design to complex enterprise software and hyperscale cloud systems. This allows me to build Go-To-Market (GTM) strategies for HPC, AI, and Quantum that are not just visionary, but commercially viable and highly profitable. Whether unearthing innovation possibilities, shaping product roadmaps, or capturing new market segments, I intersect technology and business acumen to devise solutions that multiply company revenue. To execute this, I leverage a trusted global network of VP- and C-level partners to accelerate initiatives, evangelize solutions, and win complex enterprise deals. Scaling revenue requires scaling people. I owe my success to the organizations I have built, empowered, and guided. I believe people are most engaged in cultures that value innovation, inclusion, and collaboration—values I foster within my teams and across the broader company alongside my leadership peers. 🔷 TECHNICAL EXPERTISE High-Performance Computing (HPC) | Artificial Intelligence & GenAI | Hyperscaler & Hybrid Cloud | Data Center Architecture | Quantum Computing | Enterprise Software | Semiconductors | Hardware Compute (CPU: x86/ARM/RISC-V, GPU, TPU) 🔷 EXECUTIVE COMPETENCIES P&L & Revenue Growth | Go-to-Market (GTM) Strategy | Product & Disruptive Strategy | Strategic Partnerships & Alliances | Enterprise Sales & Negotiation | Global Team Leadership | C-Suite Relationship Management 🔷 OUTSIDE THE OFFICE I serve as a Board Advisor for Texas A&M University’s Haliburton Engineering Global Program.

I am always open to connecting with fellow leaders, founders, and innovators to discuss the future of compute and AI.
