With an accomplished career spanning strategic roles at Lattice Semiconductor as corporate vice president and nearly a decade at AMD leading global strategic accounts, he brings a depth of experience and visionary leadership that will drive Lenovo’s continued growth and transformation across one of its most dynamic markets.
