Early life and education

Born in Rochester, New York to an engineer and a teacher,[6] Greene received a bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering from the University of Vermont in 1976[7] and master's degree in Naval Architecture from MIT in 1978. In 1988 she earned a second master's degree, in Computer Science, from the University of California, Berkeley.[8]

Career

At the age of 19, Greene organized the first Windsurfing World Championship and won the national women's dinghy championship in 1976.[6] She worked as an engineer and manager at Sybase, Tandem Computers, and Silicon Graphics, and then some start-up companies.[9]

In 1998, Greene, Mendel Rosenblum, Scott Devine, Edward Wang and Edouard Bugnion founded VMware.[10] In 2004, VMware was acquired by EMC Corporation.[11] On July 8, 2008, Greene was fired as president and CEO by the VMware board of directors and replaced by Paul Maritz, a retired 14-year Microsoft veteran who was running the cloud computing business of VMware parent company EMC.[12][9]

In August 2006, Greene joined the board of directors of Intuit.

In November 2015, Greene was named the senior vice president for Google's cloud businesses, following the acquisition of her startup, Bebop.[16]

In 2017, she featured as a protagonist of (Linkedin co-founder) Reid Hoffman's "Masters of Scale" podcast series, among other successful businesspeople such as Mark Zuckerberg, John Elkann, and Brian Chesky. In this interview, she discussed the strategy VMware adopted in order to scale.[17]

On February 8, 2018, Greene was elected as a member of US National Academy of Engineering.[18]
