network.
Ardito is a seasoned technologist who brings to the role over
nine years of experience leading digital transformations and
cloud-native initiatives within large organizations.
"We are thrilled to welcome Mark to Kin + Carta," said
Kelly Manthey, Group Chief

'just get to the cloud,'" said Mark

that journey needs to be purposeful. Kin + Carta gives me an
amazing opportunity: I get to help customers modernize and start to
leverage cloud-native technologies to help equip them to drive
business value."
