About

I am a results-driven and innovative problem-solver who thrives in environments that are collaborative, people-centric and dynamic. Drawing from a broad range of experiences across multiple cultures, I excel at fostering collaboration among diverse stakeholder groups. My current role is in the Fintech space, where I manage a P&L and drive the technology strategy for an International Payment Product. I own executive relationships across Canada, lead relationships with cross-functional stakeholder groups and effectively translate business priorities into tangible objectives for the technology team.
