FOSTER CITY, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Conversica, Inc., the leader in conversational artificial intelligence (AI) for business, today announced the addition of Rashmi Vittal to the company’s executive leadership team as its new chief marketing officer.

She has also held various marketing leadership positions at IBM, Oracle and Neustar.
“I’m blown away by how enthusiastic, present and intellectually curious Conversica customers are,” said Vittal. “It’s a testament to what the company has built thus far and an essential reminder for me of what we need to continue to do.
