    Hi, I am Chris, the VP of Customer Success at Quantexa!

    I live in the burbs in Wokingham, Berkshire (dreamy)

    I have worked across various companies starting with Accenture deploying primary care computer systems, I then worked at Microsoft for many years with highlights from working with the RAF, Leading the Olympics 2012 (where we got on the queens honours list) and launching the first O365 customer in Europe! I now look after Community, Customer Success, Solution Success and Education for Q.

    I am very keen to get our customers and partners collaborating more in real-time, creating a place for Quantexans to live and helping support people going on the Quantexa learning journey! I am here to support that.

    • Background in Tech: I'm a fresh physics graduate who used to work with datasets harvested from particle simulations in Cherenkov water detectors or colliders using Python, now I work with records and financial data sources in Scala 😁. Quantexa is the first company which I've worked in so I'd say I've just stepped into the tech space.
