Whether building brands, redefining product strategy, or forging high-impact alliances, he has consistently delivered results that reshape how companies grow and thrive in competitive, fast-changing industries.
Todd’s journey began with a strong academic foundation, earning a Bachelor’s degree from Yale University, followed by an MBA from Harvard Business School. Armed with a dual lens of historical perspective and business strategy, he entered the professional world with a mindset shaped by analytical precision, intellectual curiosity, and a passion for solving complex challenges. His academic pedigree laid the groundwork for a career defined by both strategic thinking and hands-on execution.
Early in his career, Todd joined leading advisory firms Forrester Research and Gartner, where he quickly rose to prominence as a trusted voice in insurance technology. As a Senior Analyst and later Vice President at Gartner, he advised global insurance clients on how to modernize their core systems, shift from “run the business” operations to growth-focused investments, and adopt emerging technologies. These roles sharpened Todd’s capacity to see around corners, understand market inflection points, and translate trends into actionable strategies—skills that would become hallmarks of his later executive roles.
Transitioning into operational leadership, Todd brought his insights to the private sector with Fiserv Insurance Solutions (now StoneRiver), where he led internal strategy across 20 acquired companies. Here, he built shared services programs that saved the company $25 million annually while improving procurement and information security. His ability to unify fragmented organizations into a cohesive, efficient whole marked the beginning of a consistent theme in his career: aligning cross-functional teams to deliver transformational outcomes.
At Marshall & Swift/Boeckh, Todd served as Chief Marketing Officer, overseeing analytics-driven product marketing and partner relationships for a suite of insurance data products. Under his leadership, the company reversed declining trends in multiple business lines, delivering double-digit growth. He brought discipline to brand messaging and market positioning, showcasing his instinct for identifying the precise levers that drive customer engagement and revenue acceleration.
Todd’s work at Majesco further demonstrated his strength in business development and solution delivery. As Vice President and Client Partner, he marketed, sold, and implemented core systems and analytics software for life insurance companies, including breakthrough wins in actuarial and digital frameworks. His ability to take products from ideation through to client success stories made him a key contributor to the company’s $30 million high-growth business unit.
From 2016 to 2019, Todd led platform marketing at Cognizant, where he brought clarity and structure to the BPaaS policy administration platform. By improving deal qualification criteria and aligning the Oracle platform roadmap with market demands, he saved the company tens of millions while improving win rates. His influence extended beyond marketing into product, partnerships, and pre-sales—once again uniting internal functions to pursue and close high-value opportunities.
In 2020, Todd took on a pivotal leadership role at Vitech, where he served as Vice President of Strategic Marketing and Partnerships. There, he led efforts to reposition the company as the industry leader in benefit administration software for group insurance companies and public pension funds. His strategic market sizing, analyst relations, and partner ecosystem development with AWS and Cognizant contributed directly to Vitech’s strongest years of growth and reputation. During his tenure, Vitech received the highest analyst rankings from Gartner, Celent, ISG, and others—testament to Todd’s influence on brand credibility and enterprise value.
Today, Todd serves as Head of Global Marketing at Exavalu, a high-growth systems integrator for the insurance sector. In just over a year, he has established a high-performing marketing engine spanning onshore and offshore resources and increased the company’s pipeline by 300% through data-driven digital campaigns. His ability to accelerate growth while maintaining strategic focus continues to define his leadership style.
Throughout his career, Todd has consistently demonstrated a rare ability to blend analytical rigor with visionary execution. A Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA), he brings a deep financial and strategic acumen to every boardroom conversation.
