As a technology and engineering leader, I bring more than a decade-plus of experience across software development methodologies, applications, and systems for Fortune 100 and public companies. My career success is a byproduct of my technical expertise, business acumen, intellectual curiosity, passion for people, and a tenacious ability to “see around corners,” which enables me to connect the dots with innovation and best practices in mind.Known as someone who can articulate technical vision into successful business and change initiatives while navigating uncertainty and ambiguity, I’m actively recruited to solve challenging people and organizational problems within the technology domain. Across my career, I’ve been able to recognize and capture opportunities because I’ve had the confidence, perseverance, and willingness to raise my sleeves and jump in headfirst. I’m energized by hard problems, and I love conquering novel challenges that cross over between technology and business strategy.Additionally, I thrive on building high-performing, engaged, and empowered technical teams and helping them to effectively use Agile methodologies which best serve their needs to work most efficiently. I’m known for creating a cultural center of gravity where people are excited to be. I chose psychology as my major in undergrad because I have a strong concern for people, and I’m intrinsically motivated by supporting their success and helping them to unlock their potential as future leaders. I’ve had the honor and privilege to mentor senior engineers, managers, and junior talent and watch them rise up in their own career ladders.I appreciate connecting with other engineering and technology leaders who are also passionate about the intersection of business strategy, technology, and people leadership.
