Co-Founder & COO @ Unframe | Building AI that actually works for enterprise | $100M raised

About

For years I watched smart companies buy into the promise of enterprise AI – and then struggle to make it do anything useful. The tools were clunky, the integrations were painful, and the ROI was hard to find. That frustration is why I co-founded Unframe. I spent a decade leading GTM and marketing at companies like Nutanix and Noname Security, working at the intersection of complex technology and the people who need to use it. I know what it takes to bring a product to market – and I know what enterprises actually need from their software. At Unframe, we’re building the AI layer that makes enterprise systems genuinely intelligent – without ripping and replacing what’s already there. We raised $50M because we believe the gap between AI’s potential and its real-world impact is a solvable problem. If you’re thinking about how AI can actually move the needle for your business, I’d love to connect.
