SUMMARY

14 years in big tech, 6 of them focused exclusively on partner ecosystems. I’ve been the technical person who makes partnerships actually work: not just the handshake, but the joint solution, the partner enablement, and the deal that closes because someone could get in a room and speak both languages. I’ve done that at Cisco, Splunk, and Atlassian, with partners ranging from global SIs to Microsoft and AWS.
