I am a serial entrepreneur who has co-founded and been CEO of multiple successful startups – Oblix (acquired by Oracle), Determina (acquired by VMware), OpenDNS (acquired by Cisco), and ScaleXtreme (acquired by Citrix). I love small, fast-moving teams focused on disrupting big markets. I have a strong background in enterprise infrastructure products, marketing, and sales.

I pivoted from my career in private industry to serve in the Government by joining the Joint Artificial Intelligence Center at the US Department of Defense where I am driving the DoD's next-generation AI efforts.

I have a degree in Computer Science and Math from Cornell, a Master of Science in Management from Stanford Business School, and a Master in Public Administration from Harvard's Kennedy School of Government.
