Summary
D W is an enterprise software executive and COO with over 25 years of experience leading strategy, operations, marketing, and business development across startups through post-IPO companies. At Proscia he scales go-to-market operations and cross-functional teams, drawing on prior senior roles at CommVault where he ran global marketing, OEM sales and Asia P&L responsibilities. He has hands-on transaction experience from IPO preparation (including S-1 and roadshow materials) and a track record of building demand centers, product positioning, and competitive messaging that drive revenue. Comfortable in international markets, he led the startup and buildout of China operations and ran regional offices across Asia. A Villanova-educated engineer by training, he combines technical grounding with a strategic, board-level perspective (Engineering Entrepreneurship Advisory Board) that helps translate product vision into measurable business outcomes. Less obvious: he pairs deep enterprise SaaS marketing expertise with direct operational P&L accountability, making him as fluent in finance as in messaging and alliances.
