Leadership depth.
Technical range.

Two decades leading teams, owning enterprise functions, and driving cross-functional initiatives — from global HRIS programs and compliance operations to AI platforms, infrastructure, and business systems. Across 75+ enterprise systems and integrations — spanning HRIS, finance, identity, infrastructure, and AI — the common thread is accountability for outcomes that cross organizational and technical boundaries.

Team Leadership & Enterprise Delivery — Led remote teams, global implementations, reporting and audit functions, vendor relationships, and cross-functional platform change at enterprise scale.
HRIS & HR Technology — SAP-to-SuccessFactors migrations, system ownership, reporting and data analytics, and end-to-end program delivery across global HR platforms.
Infrastructure & Security — Owned production environments, networking, and zero-trust access architecture. Directed security hardening and operational reliability across cloud and on-prem systems.
AI, Automation & Business Systems — Led adoption of AI orchestration, workflow automation, and observability. Managed ServiceNow, compliance systems, and cross-functional process improvement initiatives.

Reduce complexity

Consolidate overlapping systems and simplify architecture so teams can focus on what matters — not on navigating unnecessary layers.

Surface risk early

Identify fragile dependencies, single points of failure, and hidden assumptions before they become incidents. Good judgment starts with clear visibility.

Design for the long term

Build systems that future teams can understand, troubleshoot, and extend — not just systems that work on demo day.

Visibility, accountability & cost discipline

Monitoring, observability, cost telemetry, and operational dashboards give teams the visibility they need to make better decisions, manage spend, and act before problems compound.

Operationalize, don't just ship

Deployment is not the finish line. Runbooks, rollback plans, documentation, and handoff discipline are part of mature delivery.

Bridge business & technical

Translate between stakeholders and systems teams. Compliance requirements, vendor decisions, integration design, and technical architecture — in the same conversation, at the same table.
