About

I’m an operations and analytics leader with 10+ years of experience scaling systems, preventing fraud, and improving customer and vendor experiences in high-growth environments. I specialize in streamlining payments workflows, reducing risk, and building scalable processes that support both business growth and customer trust. I’ve led cross-functional projects across CX, order-to-cash operations, fraud mitigation, vendor management, and customer communications. Whether it’s designing dashboards, optimizing workflows, or improving compliance and SLAs, I thrive at the intersection of data, people, and systems. Domestically renowned tiramisu enjoyer and Ben & Jerry’s flavor guru. I’m excited to bring my experience in fraud prevention, payment operations, customer insights, and scalable systems to a growing company where I can drive both efficiency and customer confidence.
