I help enterprises protect what matters most — their data. From C-suite strategy to hands-on engineering, I bridge the gap between where organizations are and where they need to be in AI, resilience, and trust.

CDO Program 26/27
I've spent 25 years at Hewlett Packard, Citrix, and VMware — and one constant has followed me: the organizations that win protect what matters most. Today at Veeam, I lead the Americas Presales Systems Engineering team, helping the world's largest enterprises build data resilience and navigate AI, governance, risk, and compliance with confidence.
AI is rewriting the rules. I help organizations cut through the noise — building responsible AI strategies where trust isn't a checkbox, it's the foundation. Australian Army veteran. Mentor. MIT Chief Digital Officer student for 26/27 I've been in the room. Now I help others lead it.
Maturity models, recovery frameworks, and enterprise-grade protection strategy
Practical AI adoption with data governance and trust at the foundation
Ransomware readiness, clean room recovery, and incident response
Chief Digital Officer program — digital transformation leadership
From intimate roundtables to 1,500+ person keynotes — depth, energy, and real-world insight from someone who's led at the highest levels and is still in the fight, oh and a little humor!
The only maturity model that gives organizations a unified perspective on cybersecurity, disaster recovery, and operational resilience — covering strategy, people & process, and technology.
How AI is transforming backup, recovery, and security operations. Practical frameworks for enterprises adopting AI without sacrificing data trust or governance.
When (not if) you get hit — how to recover cleanly, quickly, and confidently. Real-world strategies for immutable backups, clean rooms, and incident orchestration.
Team dynamics, alignment, and execution — the pillars that separate good teams from great ones. How to build accountability that team members proactively own, creating a culture where ownership is the default. Insights from leading global teams across multiple markets and cultures.
Building next-generation SE teams across the Americas. The shift from traditional presales to Forward Deployed Engineers, winning complex enterprise deals through technical trust, and creating a culture where engineers own the outcome — not just the demo.
Turning digital strategy into digital execution. People, process, technology — in that order. Lessons from leading large-scale change across global enterprises. How FDE's are evolving traditional digital transformation to a complete new operating model!
I bring the energy. Whether it's a 500-person keynote at VeeamON Tour or a C-level roundtable, I make data resilience something people actually want to hear about.
