Strategic executive operations leader with 30+ years of experience partnering with C-Suite and leadership across global, fast-paced organizations — including Oracle, VMware, and Xplor Technologies. I don't just manage calendars and inboxes. I architect the operational infrastructure that allows executives to lead at their best. From orchestrating board governance and cross-functional alignment to building and mentoring high-performing EA teams, I bring the judgment, discretion, and foresight that senior leadership depends on. Throughout my career, I've led complex, multi-executive operations across global time zones, driven measurable efficiency gains, and served as a trusted strategic partner — not just a support function. I thrive in environments where ambiguity is the norm and where the pace demands someone who anticipates needs before they arise.
