Speaker Bio
As Area Vice President and Global Head of National Security and Defence Sector Go‑to‑Market at ServiceNow, Kevin leads global go-to-market strategy for a business spanning every geography, and the full range of institutions charged with defending nations and protecting people. His work connects platform capability to real-world mission outcomes for defence ministries, intelligence enterprises, homeland security organisations, and national security agencies worldwide.
What makes Kevin's perspective distinctive is what he brings to the table before he ever opens a slide deck. As a retired U.S. Air Force Colonel, he spent his career leading large, mission-critical organisations — building coalitions with allied partners and across the full spectrum of national security driving transformation under conditions where failure wasn’t an option. That experience isn't just a credential. It shapes how he thinks about GTM strategy: bridging the gap between the boardroom and the operations centre and helping defence institutions move from fragmented modernisation efforts to something more integrated and durable.
At ServiceNow, Kevin's focus is on scaling repeatable industry plays that translate platform capability into measurable mission outcomes. He's known for his data-anchored storytelling, his ability to build high-trust coalitions across government, industry, and academia, and his instinct for converting strategic complexity into executable momentum.
Kevin is an active voice on AI-enabled defence and national security operating models. He partners broadly across ecosystems to help define the frameworks and solutions shaping the next era of national security innovation — because, as he'd be the first to say, the stakes haven't changed, only the platform.
