What I'm looking for

I want a role that leverages operations and automation expertise, values cross-functional collaboration, and offers opportunities to improve processes and scale tech-forward solutions in sports tech or cybersecurity.

I am an operations professional with 7+ years of experience improving financial operations, logistics, and IT support by implementing technology-driven solutions. I have a proven record of managing AR/AP, payroll accuracy, vendor relations, and cross-functional coordination while reducing manual work through AI-powered automation.

I lead AI and process automation initiatives (including ChatGPT and custom tools) that cut manual processing time by 20%, and I provide hands-on IT infrastructure and cybersecurity monitoring to protect operations. I seek to bring operational excellence and tech-forward problem-solving to a sports technology or cybersecurity-focused organization.
