He has been with Pure Storage for 5 years and has been instrumental in helping many organisations overcome their business challenges with the Pure Storage Platform.

The IT landscape in Australia & New Zealand is undergoing a significant transformation driven by the rise of consumption-based models, generative AI, and ever-increasing cyber threats. Recent research commissioned by Pure Storage indicated that over 80% of CIOs and IT leaders in Australia were concerned that their existing IT infrastructure would not keep up with AI advancements. Organizations here need a modern data storage platform that is secure, scalable, flexible, and optimized to unlock the full potential of their data.
