About Me
My Experience
I’m a tech executive with experience leading teams, driving transformation & global platform strategies, and developing world-class integration solutions. I graduated from college with a BS in mathematics and minor in computer science. I've been working in product & technology for over twenty-five years in a variety of positions from engineering to project management to product management & strategy. Each role has given me a new perspective to create innovative solutions from idea to production to operations. My focus for success is being value-driven, balancing short-term wins with long-term strategy, and always looking at the whole when introducing change.
My Skills
My core strengths are strategy, leadership and organization. I have built many teams over the years and one of my core values is transparency. Teams that have context, understand the big picture & are empowered to make decisions provide better solutions for the immediate tactics as well as the long-term strategy.
I am experienced in a number of disciplines including:
- Product management
- Program & portfolio management
- Enterprise architecture
- Engineering & quality assurance
Sustainable growth requires a holistic strategy, focused on the connections between technology and people. An impactful enterprise strategy not only takes technical architectures - infrastructure, applications & data - into consideration but also includes business architecture. Focus on people & processes in an enterprise strategy enables an organization to take full advantage of rapidly evolving technology for long-term success.
My Passions
Outside of the office, I love the outdoors! I'm a big fan of camping, though our camping these days is more "glamping" but it still gets us outside, enjoying a hike with the dogs. I also enjoy photography, crafts and the occasional concert.
My Values
My core values are integrity & trust, people first, and efficiency through optimization. I thrive in a culture of teamwork.
My leadership purpose is to transform technology and culture to speed innovation in a sustainable way, and foster creativity & experimentation with a data-driven mindset for constant improvement.
I am passionate about the big picture and optimizing for maximum value. I love sharing my experience, helping teams align goals, and architecting solutions that fit the business today & into the future.
