DENVER, CO - March 7, 2024 - Arturo, the property intelligence company that delivers portfolio-wide underwriting, risk, claims and catastrophe-driven event insights, announces the addition of Donnie Millar as Vice President of Data Science and AI, and Thom Keyes as Vice President of Finance. Both leaders join as the insurtech company accelerates into adjacent markets where actionable property data insights can be leveraged to inform business and risk mitigation decisions, and strengthen relationships with customers.

Donnie Millar, a seasoned data scientist and quantitative developer, joins Arturo as Vice President of Data Science and AI after a 13-year career at Goldman Sachs where he played a pivotal role in revolutionizing their research division's data strategy and computing capabilities. Millar's expertise lies in building and advancing innovative technology, particularly in the realms of predictive analytics and machine learning. His experience in both corporate and startup environments, coupled with his entrepreneurial spirit, makes Millar a valuable addition to the team.

"I'm thrilled to join Arturo and return to my roots in the startup world while building on my quantitative development experience," said Millar. "The opportunity to make a meaningful impact on company culture and growth, combined with my passion for technology and advancing the use of machine learning, aligns perfectly with Arturo's goals." 

Arturo is also excited to welcome Thom Keyes as the new Vice President of Finance. Keyes' impressive 18-year career encompasses high-growth SaaS and fintech startups, including Womply, Ancestry.com, and HireVue, where he performed complex financial modeling, optimized financial processes, and led strategic decision-making to ensure financial stability. His enthusiasm for startups and dedication to pushing boundaries perfectly aligns with Arturo's innovative culture and growth plans.

"I'm excited to join the Arturo team at a time where the company’s unique property intelligence can be leveraged to revolutionize decision making across the insurance industry and beyond,”  said Keyes. "The chance to tackle fresh challenges and contribute to the company’s expansion into new markets is both invigorating and inspiring.” 

CEO of Arturo, Marty Smuin added, "Donnie and Thom bring great talent and experience to our team, furthering Arturo's position as a leader in property intelligence. We are confident that their contributions will be instrumental to our growth as we continue to deliver unparalleled solutions to both our existing and future customers."

This announcement follows the appointment of Jeff Taylor as Chief Strategy Officer.
