About

With over a decade of experience spanning innovation, operations, and entrepreneurship, I specialize in turning ideas into executable strategies that deliver measurable impact. As a Sr. Innovation Project Manager at Dallas Fort Worth International Airport, I lead and support initiatives that enhance operational efficiency and elevate the customer experience within one of the world’s busiest airports. My work sits at the intersection of strategy and execution, where vision becomes reality. Prior to DFW, I built a strong foundation in entrepreneurship by owning and operating three successful franchises. That experience sharpened my ability to lead teams, manage performance, and make data-driven decisions in fast-paced environments. I hold an MBA from Texas Christian University and bring core strengths in strategic planning, data analysis, stakeholder engagement, and program execution. I am driven by opportunities to innovate, collaborate, and create meaningful value, whether improving complex systems or helping organizations move forward with clarity and purpose.
