I've also taken on additional IT and facilities functions and supported changes for new processes and regulatory/SOX compliance practices throughout a period of rapid growth and change. I consider myself a positive team leader and dedicated player-coach who takes full responsibility to advance my team's capabilities. Working across time zones, I'm able to bring members together to get things done by clearly communicating what success looks like and showing them a path to execution.
