Director for AI and Application Innovation at Oracle. Previously, I was the sole founder, CTO/CEO of Invirtus Inc., a COTS software company that pioneered advanced server migration and storage optimization products (incl. two US Patents). I grew Invirtus to nearly 200 employees (after acquisition), acquired more than 32k customers, including half of the Fortune 50. Invirtus was acquired by Quest Software, where I stayed and led all business operations for a total of eight years. Prior to Invirtus, I was at Microsoft for 12-years. I have a deep understanding of the levers of business and revenue growth—from picking up the phone to close a deal, helping colleagues with customers or partners, creating exciting product roadmaps and GTMs that drive customer acquisition and funnel development, to building amazing teams that build amazing products, [and meeting deadlines].
