“Neither a wise man nor a brave man lies down on the tracks of history to wait for the train of the future to run over him.” - U.S. President Dwight D. Eisenhower I am so excited to share that I have joined The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC) as the Head of Digital Client Platforms and overall Head of IT Business Management. Responsibilities will include Middleware and Client Technologies, IT Investment Strategy, IT Business Management, and close partnership with others to leverage AI technologies to support Enterprise Services’ priorities to further digitize our client interfaces and solutions. This quote reminds me of how DTCC is proactively charting a course and has a clear vision of its path forward to continue to be a true strategic partner to the financial markets … leveraging decades of experience and deep expertise to galvanize, lead and support the industry through transformational change.
