What I'm looking for

I seek senior platform roles where I can lead ServiceNow strategy, drive governance, deliver integrations, and scale automation within collaborative, improvement-focused teams.

I am a ServiceNow Certified Architect with a decade of hands-on experience designing and delivering enterprise ServiceNow solutions across ITSM, ITOM, HRSD, and CSM. I focus on translating complex business needs into scalable platform architectures while enforcing governance and best practices.

Throughout my career I have led cross-functional teams, driven platform adoption, and implemented integrations and automation at scale—improving SLA compliance, accelerating HR response times, and enabling automated incident workflows. I combine technical expertise in GlideScript, JavaScript, REST/SOAP APIs, and orchestration with strong solution design and roadmapping skills.

I seek to partner with organizations that value robust platform strategy, continuous improvement, and measurable business outcomes, bringing pragmatic leadership and a proven track record of delivering enterprise-grade ServiceNow implementations.
