Building alliances that generate revenue at scale

I've spent 16 years building partner ecosystems — often starting as a team of one and growing to as many as 40. My career spans global systems integrators, cybersecurity, AI/testing, and enterprise software.

At Wipro, I grew the IBM Alliance from $80M to $450M in 3.5 years, instrumental in deals up to $300M TCV. Since then I've built alliance programs at CyberArk, Snyk, Illusive, Corero, and Functionize — each time creating something from scratch and leaving it larger than I found it.

I live in Newton, MA with my wife Laurel. Outside of work I coach youth athletics, run, and am working toward competing in USATF Masters pole vault.
