• At Salesforce, I created and scaled Salesforce Mobile from concept to product, contributing to 3x revenue growth and helping the company surpass $1 billion in ARR.
• While at Symantec, I delivered Norton Endpoint security products that protected millions of users worldwide and generated $3 billion in revenue.

I'm passionate about responsible AI development and implement comprehensive governance frameworks ensuring ethical AI deployment at scale. My approach integrates:

• AI safety protocols and model explainability
• Bias detection and mitigation strategies
• Regulatory compliance and risk management
