Throughout my 20+ years of professional experience, I’ve thrived in challenging situations that allowed me to exercise my entrepreneurial skills and natural penchant for driving growth. I enjoy solving complex problems, identifying new revenue opportunities, and working collaboratively with intelligent, talented, and good people to unlock value. I’m an inspirational leader and have led numerous cross-functional teams by selecting and coaching talented team leaders, setting a clear course, and trusting them to lead the way. STRATEGIC GROWTH DRIVERI employ steady leadership and bias for action to focus and unify teams to optimize business results. Recently, this drove $130M in annual revenue for Tyler Technologies by transforming client engagements and increasing net revenue retention, expanding addressable market and improving win rates, and adding both acquired and organically created products to our portfolio.ENTREPRENEURIAL AND VERSATILE LEADER At New World, I was a versatile leader that helped scale a founder-led business focused on providing software solutions to state and local government agencies. There, I led teams across multiple disciplines, including legal, operations, sales, marketing, human resources, and information technology. Our work positioned the business well for a successful exit through the strategic acquisition by Tyler Technologies. COLLABORATIVE RESULTS PRODUCERI believe strongly in culture and its ability to improve business performance through higher employee engagement. I am a ground-up, collaborative leader that values input from all levels of the organization. I used this approach to establish an organic mission, vision, and set of core values for my division at Tyler leading to an aligned, focused, and productive team. Higher employee engagement and reduced attrition naturally followed our work and led to our business being named a Top Workplaces in Michigan for seven straight years.I have a JD from Michigan State University (Go Green!), an MBA from Oakland University, and a BS in Psychology from Grand Valley State University.
