About

For more than 15 years, I’ve helped organizations turn complex business challenges into practical technology solutions. I’ve led enterprise initiatives for Fortune 500 companies including STERIS and Sherwin-Williams, while also partnering with globally recognized brands such as Timberland, The North Face, Uniqlo, and ADT Security. Today, I focus on intelligent automation, process transformation, and operational excellence. I lead initiatives that leverage AI, workflow automation, and case management platforms to streamline operations, reduce manual effort, and improve the experience of both employees and customers. My experience spans e-commerce, mobile applications, ERP systems, digital marketing platforms, content management, Salesforce, and SaaS solutions across healthcare, retail, financial services, manufacturing, and B2B organizations. I thrive at the intersection of business and technology, translating strategy into execution by aligning stakeholders, simplifying complexity, and delivering measurable outcomes. I’m passionate about using emerging technologies to help teams work smarter, solve meaningful problems, and create lasting business value.
