What I'm looking for

I'm looking to apply my analytical, operational, and strategic planning experience to mission-driven work that creates meaningful community impact.

At Ted Turner Reserves, I lead cross-functional sales, marketing, revenue, reservations, and field-operations initiatives for a conservation-focused organization. I improve reporting, SOPs, workflows, and digital asset systems while translating conservation research into accessible stakeholder communications.

Previously at Elkem Silicones, I managed a $20M innovation portfolio, guided products from market research through commercialization, and brought together R&D, manufacturing, supply chain, quality, customers, and external partners. I’m motivated by mission-driven work where analytical thinking, practical systems, and strong collaboration can create meaningful community impact.
