I am passionate about applying IT strategies to achieve business goals by redefining how organizations innovate to be outcome-focused, cloud-powered, platform-led, product-centric, and data-driven with the right people in the right roles.
An accomplished executive that built and led over 75 inclusive, empowered, high-performing global teams that together, As One Team, delivered business value via scalable, holistic solutions (people, process, technology, & controls) by creating a vision, engaging stakeholders, leading change, and responding to changing business conditions.
My love of IT & finance took us on journeys that completed 11 successful global ERP implementations, 7 M&A transactions, organizational restructurings, and improvements to reporting & data functions, as well as countless end-to-end business process improvements.
