🌟 "Inspired by Dell Technologies's Tagline: The Power of Consistency" 🌟 I recently came across Dell's new tagline, "Doing is the new learning," in an advert, and it left me truly #inspired. It's a reminder of the transformative power of consistency and the importance of showing up every day with unwavering #intent. In a world that's constantly evolving, this tagline reflects my own #belief in the value of daily #commitment. It's not just about learning but about applying that knowledge through #consistent action. Small steps, taken each day, lead to significant progress. Whether in my #professional journey, working with incredible individuals, or pursuing my goals, I'm embracing this concept as a personal mantra. The power of consistent effort, combined with intent, is a force that can turn dreams into reality. Let's make a collective commitment to daily learning through our actions and inspire each other in this dynamic world. #Inspiration #Consistency #DailyCommitment #DoingIsLearning

And, I resigned from Dell Technologies to start a new chapter in life. After nine amazing years at Dell, managing well over $10 billion in negotiations, leading teams to pioneer new technologies, and striving for excellence, my journey at Dell has come to a close. Dell was more than just a workplace — it was a transformative experience that shaped who I am today. Here are some key lessons that will continue to guide me: 1. Relationships are your ultimate differentiator. 2. Hold yourself accountable to an exceptional standard of excellence and performance. 3. Win, but always with integrity. 4. Succeed together as a team. 5. Innovation is the engine for growth. Thank you, Dell, for the incredible opportunities. With the same passion and determination, I'm now starting my journey to work on my startup — the next generation software stack for operations teams. Just two days of talking to prospective pilot customers have already yielded fantastic insights. To my network: I would greatly appreciate your introductions to contacts in operations, especially in manufacturing (or contract mnfg) space. I’m on the road to learn, adapt, and refine my roadmap. Your support would be invaluable!

Well, since it’s now public knowledge, my time at Dell is ending soon. More details on my next challenge will be coming soon. In the meantime, I have a lot of people to say “thank you” and “so long” to. Who knew that in 9 years, I’d make so many good friends? Here’s a few things I learned in my first 9 years of software and test automation development: - Everything scales, and often quickly. - Code review can be an amazing learning experience if you treat it as one. - Be at least as complimentary as you are critical. - You now is a completely different person than you 6 months ago, or 6 months from now. You won’t remember why, so document it. - Spend the time now to design and document, and it will pay off dividends in the future. - Invest in people more than technology. Tools, languages, and ideas come and go, but people are the constant. Good, motivated people will be the real difference between mediocre and exceptional. - Take the time to mentor. All of us who got to senior level, did so on the shoulders of the people who took the time to listen, empathize, ask, and advise. - Make sure to thank the people who help and inspire you. You never know when they’ll be gone. Onto the next challenge.

Today, we’re celebrating Dell’s 40th birthday, and what a ride it has been! It’s incredible to reflect on how far we've come, from an idea that started in a dorm room to a leading global technology provider, empowering organizations and individuals to achieve amazing things. Many of us probably might not even remember the first Dell-manufactured PC – the Turbo PC with a modest 10MB hard drive. Nowadays, the file size of a single high-resolution image could easily exceed that. The recent launch of Dell’s AI-ready PCs serves as a testament to the remarkable progress we've made over the past four decades. Reflecting on Dell's remarkable 40-year legacy, I feel deeply privileged to be part of this transformative journey. Over the last 13 years at Dell, I've witnessed countless innovations that not only redefine the technological landscape but also propel human progress. It's been a journey filled with challenges and triumphs. The invaluable growth and experiences have profoundly shaped me both personally and professionally. As we celebrate this remarkable milestone, it's clear that our journey is far from over. With each passing year, our commitment to growth and driving positive change becomes stronger. Here's to 40 years of innovation, resilience, and transformative impact – and to the countless milestones yet to come. Join us to celebrate as we embark on this exhilarating journey towards an even brighter future! #iwork4dell

October 5th, 2009. What an incredible journey that date marks for me! It's the day I embarked on my adventure with Dell, and it's been a remarkable ride. I joined Dell not as a techie or a salesperson, but as someone driven by the desire to provide for my family. Little did I know that Dell would not only offer me that opportunity but so much more. Over the past 13+ years, time has flown by like a whirlwind, yet it also feels like I've lived a lifetime in those moments. Through the ups and downs, even when paychecks were light and uncertainties were heavy, I always felt like I was exactly where I needed to be. My time at Dell has seen three presidents, two recessions, a global pandemic, and- most importantly- the joyful addition of four kids to our family. However, as one chapter closes, another one opens. My time at Dell has gracefully reached its conclusion. It's true that I've been incredibly fortunate to have narrowly escaped previous workforce changes, but this time, change has found me. Looking back, there were instances when I was sure my name would be on that list, only to discover that God had other plans. Recently, I had found my rhythm and was confidently treading the path set before me, yet life has reminded me that tomorrow's script is never set in stone. Amidst the whirlwind of emotions that have flooded me in the past 12 hours, sadness often rises to the surface. Nevertheless, I'm choosing to view this transition as a blessing for my family and me. I hold firmly to the belief that God guides our steps, cradling us in the palms of His hands. I'm certain that these changes will ultimately serve a purpose greater than we can imagine, working towards a greater good and a brighter future. Initially, I hesitated to share these words, worried that my story wouldn't stand out amidst the powerful narratives of my colleagues who've left an indelible mark on the company. However, I am convinced that each of us has a unique path ahead. So, as I step into the next phase of my journey, I embrace the uncertainty with hope. If you come across any opportunities, I'd be grateful if you could keep me in mind. Thank you for taking the time to read my thoughts. Please take care and keep shining brightly out there. #opentowork

After ~20 years at Intel, I have made the very difficult decision to move on to the next chapter in my career. I have been extremely fortunate to have had the opportunity to work with and learn from so many fantastic people over my time here (there are just too many to list). I wouldn’t have had the small modicum of success that I did have without the support from so many wonderful people. I will be forever be grateful for the many opportunities I’ve had to grow personally and professionally. I would be remiss if I didn’t share some of my key learnings from over the years: Think Big…Act Big - Have a vision for yourself and for the team’s you lead --> enables you to take risk. Don’t be afraid to ask for help - Be accountable for yourself, the success of your team and others - Easier to ask for forgiveness than permission…as long as your decisions/actions are made ethically with high integrity Nothing Free is ever Worthwhile - No one is ever going to just give you something for free that’s worthwhile…you have to earn it…whether it is a job, an assignment, or most importantly trust - Stretch yourself and others…don’t be afraid to fail - Be adaptable and never get too comfortable Get Involved & Give Back - Individual success comes from investing in other’s success - Focus on the positive in people vs. the negative…including yourself! It’ll do wonders for you and for those around you - Work should not suck all the time…have fun, find your passion at work and pursue it relentlessly
