January 1998 — Present (11 years)
Worked with the technology that became KALIDO since the end of 1997, spent almost a year on the development team in London, and returned to the US in a Presales Consultancy and Technology Evangelist role. As the initial North American employee, I was responsible for assisting in our transition to the US market, supporting and on-boarding new sales reps and alliance partners, and supporting the sales process as well as assisting with consultancy and training.
As we've grown significantly, my currently priority is pre-sales which entails helping customers and potential customers understand our technology and gauging a fit with their requirements. I also represent Kalido at industry events where required and speak on topics such adaptive data modeling techniques, master data management, time variance, as well as Kalido.
