- Joined the original Presto creators (who co-founded Starburst to offer fully managed Presto) to build Starburst’s batch analytics product from scratch. I interviewed users to build the business proposal and roadmap, hired an engineering team, and led the go-to-market strategy. - Built an active open source community of over 200 companies using Starburst’s open source product Trino (renamed from Presto) for batch analytics. -As evidence of the popularity of this product, many companies like Salesforce, Lyft, Zillow, and TreasureData have given talks, written blogs, and published research papers about Starburst/Trino for batch analytics. - Featured in many influential data forums like dbt Coalesce, DataIQ Talks, and Data Fabric Summit.
