Rob Hootselle has spent over twenty years in consulting with some of the most influential companies in IT. Coming out of college selling million-dollar IBM AS400 systems, he then founded the software firm, Axiom Technologies, who was integral in the ecommerce boom of the late 1990’s. Most recently, Rob has championed the offerings of SimpliVity & Fusion-io, both billion-dollar startups, and it was his time working directly for Steve Wozniak, the former founder of Apple, at Fusion-io, that he credits for his love of new technology.
Rob is married to his wife, Laura, who runs a clinical research drug study firm and they have four teenage children, a new puppy and absolutely no time to work on his golf game.
