Chief Technology and AI Officer, Commvault
Commvault•Washington, District of Columbia, United States
View LinkedIn ProfileExecutive Overview
I lead product management, design, and strategy at Commvault, focused on building AI-driven cyber resilience platforms across data, security, and recovery. My work is about turning technology into monetizable products that get adopted and drive real outcomes. That means making clear bets, prioritizing hard, and getting execution right. I’ve spent my career in enterprise software and cloud, including time at BCG working with software companies on product and platform strategy, and at Carrick investing in enterprise software and AI. I care about focus and execution. Most teams don’t fail on ideas. They fail on prioritization and the last mile.
