As a C-Suite Technology Executive, I advance digital-first priorities in complex, physical industries by leading teams and building collaborative relationships. My unique value lies in bridging the gap between a "Silicon Valley" approach and a boots-on-the-ground operational reality, drawing on a background in software engineering, a Kellogg MBA, and hands-on leadership. My leadership style is defined by applying contextual intelligence borne from cross-cultural experiences. Having navigated life and business 12,000 miles from my point of origin, I possess a unique adaptability to different markets, industries, and cultures. Whether negotiating with vendors in the Midwest or navigating global logistics, I operate with stewardship, truth, and resilience. My core strengths and results are in Operational Efficiency, Strategic Transformation, and Capital Efficiency.
