Sales & People, Kalvium

Runs the sales and people functions at Kalvium. Joined the team after, in his own words, being "blown away" by the founders' obsession with outcomes as the north-star metric. Spends most of his time on the operator side of the company, hiring, building teams, calling the tradeoffs that don't make it into a brochure. On the blog he writes the contrarian-operator pieces, the math that the placement statistics don't show, the questions parents should ask before signing a fee cheque. Detailed bio pending team review.
