I'm a father, husband, world traveler & cloud security ☁️ boss with over two decades in tech. Oh, and I'm one of Amazon’s first 100 employees.

Currently I serve as the Chief Product Officer at Upwind Security. Previously I was the VP of Product & Strategy for VMware, a General Manager at Amazon Web Services (AWS), and held product leadership roles at early-stage startups, including Zynga. I'm a sought-after keynote speaker at global conferences and events on accelerating innovation, organizational development, cybersecurity, devops and cloud computing and hold more than 20 patents.

In addition to my primary role as an exec in the tech industry, I am an Advisory Board member for several early stage startups, and non-profits including URJ Camp Kalsman and the Anti-Defamation League (ADL). Learn more about why I support the ADL, and how I believe the tech world can create safer digital spaces free of hate and extremism.

Outside of work I enjoy spending time with my family, traveling the world, and documenting the sites, food & people I meet on my Instagram.
