From early-days cloud computing to the latest context-aware mobile apps, the past 19 years were spent developing and marketing emerging technologies in Silicon Valley. On that journey, I’ve co-authored a Dummies book on digital service brokering, hosted “The Zoo,” a web show about modern IT, presented at major IT conferences, and successfully launched dozens of social, mobile and cloud-based products. A messaging wiz, my major skill is to lead go-to-market teams that make the complex and costly appear simple and invaluable to both IT and business users. Prior to CA Technologies, I held marketing roles at ITSM giant BMC Software, mobile-app maker Aeroprise, financial SaaS startup Intacct, IBM and one of the earliest cloud companies, Digital Island.
