Global Vice President of Enablement, Equinix

This is my second time leaving Google Cloud after about 3.5 years each stint. Both times were fantastic, with lots of learning, opportunities, and fun. I've made so many friends and leave with great memories. I’ve been very fortunate to have led the awesome Global Business Enablement team for much of my 7 years with Google. It's been a period of amazing growth, and I'm incredibly proud of what we achieved under the excellent leadership of our COO Greta Krupetsky. To my team: thanks for your dedication and hard work. You're all amazing! Special shout-out to my leadership team: Ajay Verma, Kelly Grover, Melain Terry, Stephanie Ingram, Moriah Baxevane-Connell, Crystal Eisinger, Ultan Coyle, Neeru Ahuja, Paula Morency and Julia Dorigo. You're the best, and I'm really proud of our impact. I know Emma Cloney will keep doing great things with the team. Thanks to the GTM Executive leadership team, especially the superhuman Jacqueline Suarez and her Office of the President team. It's been such a pleasure working with you all. Matt Renner and the Cloud GTM exec team, I wish you all the very best and will be cheering you on always. A special thanks to Louise Byrne, my first manager at Google back in 2016 and such a huge positive influence when I returned to Google Cloud. I learned so much from you and will be forever grateful. Thanks, Google Cloud, for everything! I'm excited for what's next - more on that next week!
