I work as a member of the DGX Technical Marketing team, focused on exploring how to solve customer problems with the incredible technology that NVIDIA offers. Much of my focus centers around how Base Command Platform and Base Command Manager enable use of DGX systems in the datacenter and DGX Cloud.Prior to shifting focus to Technical Marketing, I spent a few years working as a solutions architect in a partner integration lab, which has enabled partner storage testing along with validation of NVIDIA SuperPOD deployment and management.In my time at NVIDIA, my key contributions have been around open source technology, solution design and validation, medium to large scale lab maintenance, customer-facing guides, and presentations.

Led various pieces within the HPC and AI Storage space for HPE. We worked on benchmarking the Apollo 6500 running deep learning workloads against the storage solutions that our team supported. I was also responsible for an internal sizing tool that builds full BOMs with performance estimates for WekaIO, Lustre, and HPE DMF with minimal requirements from a solution architect using the tool. I also worked directly on the HPE DMF product in the user interface and API space.

In this role I contributed to multiple storage device drivers across both Linux and VMWare, such as cciss, hpvsa, and hpsa. I remained open to new ways to use our technology, which resulted in a huge opportunity to lead the Cleversafe dsNet software integration and validation on HP's SL4540 servers (the initial product that became HPE's Apollo storage server line today). My work in the object storage space with Cleversafe as well as Scality and Inktank (the original organization behind the Ceph project) resulted in several opportunities to present HP/HPE technology at various technical conferences.
