I am a results oriented Executive Leader with proven ability to use technology strategies to deliver innovation, business growth, and efficient operational performance. As CIO, building out the IT infrastructure, organizations and eCommerce environments for Papa Johns and Panera Bread during rapid growth periods was exceptionally challenging and rewarding. Today, Papa John’s eCommerce business exceeds $5 billion and is rapidly growing.
