Moving the needle on performance requires practicality and proven approaches – as well as innovation and new perspectives. That’s where Rahul comes in.

He led enterprise IT transformation efforts for Fortune 100 companies, including many of the largest healthcare providers and payers and a variety of other clients across the technology, consumer products, and financial services industries.
He joined West Monroe from Pace Harmon, where he was a managing director and leader of the IT Strategy and Transformation practice. Previously, he was chief transformation officer for Catholic Health Initiatives, chief technology officer for UnitedHealth Group, and vice president of IT for Cigna.
