I partnered with the new VP of Strategy to found, build, and run a team charged with driving transformative growth in Intel’s cloud and data center business. The team pursues transformative opportunities through a mix of organic and inorganic investment, strategic partnerships, and M&A.

I was the product manager for Intel's Nervana AI training chip responsible for the Enterprise & Government and Next Wave Cloud Service Provider segments. I developed our E&G and NW CSP GTM strategy and forged strategic partnerships for Intel AI training hardware. I also met with and evaluated dozens of customers to test product/market fit, worked with the sales team to build an early customer pipeline, and worked with engineering leads to incorporate customer software requirements into the product roadmap.

I was responsible for driving the growth of Intel's AI business with government and public sector customer, including a multi-million dollar contract for close collaboration with a strategic federal customer, and a DARPA program to restore muscle control after spinal cord injuries with the help of Intel AI hardware and software. I also formed and led a cross-functional team for an AI for Good project on disaster response with the Red Cross and a top AI research institute (MILA). Intel's CEO highlighted the success of the project in his keynote at CES in 2020. See more about it here: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/artificial-intelligence/red-cross.html
