Chief People & AI Transformation Officer at Zapier

About

High-performing, human-centered cultures are rare. They're also a massive advantage for any team working to leave the world better than they found it. I build talent systems that power elite teams, drawing on experience in talent strategy, recruiting, AI and automation, sales, business development, finance, and operations. I’m proud to apply this interdisciplinary approach at Zapier, a special company with bedrock values and a mission to make automation work for everyone. These days, I also translate Zapier's success with AI into a broader enablement effort—helping customers write their own AI transformation journeys with practical run books and use cases. Given what's possible with AI, we find ourselves in the middle of a talent renaissance. People and culture have rarely mattered more. I’m honored to be part of a broader movement that's preparing people and organizations to succeed in the AI-first era. If you share this view of the world, let's connect. We'll go further together.,
