As a senior IT Finance leader, I’m about running IT like a business in order to deliver business value to the organization. I have gained a wealth of experience from roles in IT, accounting and business operations required to understand the fundamental dependency organizations have on IT. I thrive on the intersection of conversations between CIOs, CFOs, and COOs. By applying analytical and insightful thinking that extends beyond the numbers into business context, I am able to drive IT financial transparency through IT OPEX budgeting, CAPEX investment planning, chargeback/showback, benchmarking, and cost optimization. I am constantly looking for opportunities where I can leverage appropriate technology solutions and pragmatic IT strategies that impact and improve the bottom line. It’s then about credibility, keeping your word, delivering, even over-delivering on your commitments.I believe in creating a climate in which people want to do their best. Using goal setting, pro-active communication, trust, openness, respect, integrity, and shared success to inspire diverse, cross-functional teams to rally to a common cause and do their best work.
