<div class="exec-info">
<h3>Ellen Marsh</h3>
<p class="title">CEO &amp; Co-Founder</p>
<p>Ellen built the first version of AxiomFlow's rules engine after a decade running operations at a mid-size manufacturer and deciding the tools available were not good enough. She has no CS background, which is probably why the product ended up designed for people who don't either. Attends all-hands twice a year. Has final say on pricing and customer commitments. Does not use Slack.</p>
