I am passionate believer that right data insights can lead to right decisions which in turn can help change peoples’ lives.
My career has afforded me depth and breadth of executive leadership in big data analytics spanning various functions across marketing, product, sales, customer experience and engineering. All along this journey my core strength has been facilitative leadership and change management while delivering significant growth across US/international, consumer/SMB, marketing/product or any portfolio.
I am equally comfortable in dealing with minute details of data and analytics ecosystem while totally at ease pitching new ideas to C level executives. I manage teams/functions across full spectrum data ecosystem right from big data engineering [Hadoop, ad tech stacks] to business analytics to high impact areas like customer segmentation, media mix, attribution, predictive modeling, machine learning and unstructured data mining.
The part I love most though is to build from scratch, grow and nurture geo-dispersed teams and inspire people to deliver the exceptional. I have built teams from practically nothing to 50+ members and continue to do so since there is a sense of challenge and accomplishment that really excites me.
In addition, I am fairly active in collaborating with industry thought leaders and am frequently invited to keynote or speak in various settings on topics related to Analytics, Marketing and Product Management. In the past I have spoken at events hosted by Adobe, Google, Ensighten, SiteSpect and several industry conferences like eMetrics, DAA, Big Data Innovation, Predictive Analytics, Business Insights, Marketing Analytics
Outside of work, I am an avid follower of Pittsburgh area sports teams and try to use my analytics skills to gain leverage in fantasy football.
