Heading up a business within EPI-USE to implement complex global payrolls for large multinational clients. Implementing payrolls requires a tremendous amount of trust, which we work hard to earn every day. I work directly with clients, partners and our own people to ensure we deliver and run payroll and related data and integration projects timely and accurately. As part of this role I serve on the executive / steering committees for HR / payroll transformation management for multiple companies.

Founded the "International Payroll Executives" (IPX) community of experts. IPX is an invite-only group of senior global payroll executives from large multinational companies. The purpose of IPX is to give executives with international payroll responsibility a small, trusted community of peers to share with, and learn from. We share best practices, case studies, do joint innovation and analyze current and future trends in the global payroll space.

Initiated a partnership with Evolutio that went so well we ended up doing an equity transaction with them, and I'm still marginally involved in the business in an advisory capacity.

I've developed and published an iPhone apps for fun as side projects and to learn to use artificial intelligence productively to do something I would not have been able to do on my own. It was a fantastic experience and made me realize the tremendous potential of AI. See https://sunup.day and https://n4x4.app (Especially if you are a Huberman, Peter Attia or Rhonda Patrick fan).
