After five impactful years, closing a defining chapter at Accenture.

After five impactful years, closing a defining chapter at Accenture.

Five years ago, tech sustainability was still an emerging space. What began as a set of ideas evolved into building awareness, creating assets, platforms, and frameworks, driving real client impact, and contributing to new ISO standards that are shaping how organizations approach sustainability in software and AI.

Over time, this work gained industry recognition, with leadership reflected in evaluations by Forrester and Everest Group.

Grateful to Accenture for the opportunities, and to the Tech Sustainability Innovation team and extended teams who helped build and scale this work.

I’m excited to begin a new chapter with the Green Software Foundation and The Linux Foundation, stepping in as Executive Director.

Having been involved with the Green Software Foundation since its inception, this transition feels both natural and meaningful.

There is still a long way to go—and much more to build together as a community.

Sustainability is a shared responsibility. It requires collaboration across organizations, industries, and communities to make it the default, not the exception, with a clear focus on balancing cost, carbon, and energy in how software and AI are built and operated.

Thankful to Asim Hussain for building a strong foundation, and looking forward to working with the ecosystem to take this forward at scale.

Onward! 🚀
