With over ten years of experience in global connectivity procurement and planning, I am a passionate and strategic leader who thrives on solving complex network challenges and delivering optimal solutions for customers. As a Sr. Edge Planner at Amazon Web Services (AWS), I developed growth strategies for RSPC capacity in EMEA metros to coincide with long-term dark fiber backbone investments, managed cross-functional input, and built consensus among key stakeholders to improve resiliency, scalability, cost, and performance for customers. I am driven by the mission of AWS to enable innovation and transformation through cloud computing, and I value collaboration, diversity, and customer obsession.Before joining AWS, I was a Senior Sourcing Manager at eBay, where I procured all of eBay's connectivity globally, including EPL, EVPL, WAVE's, Dark Fiber, IP Transit, DIA and peering. I managed relationships with of all of eBay's providers, negotiated contracts, and ensured compliance and quality standards. I also collaborated with internal and external partners to optimize network design, architecture, and performance. I leveraged my skills in manufacturing process improvement, network transformation, and EVPL to deliver cost-effective and reliable connectivity solutions for eBay's platforms and users.
