What I'm looking for

I seek senior technology leadership roles where I can drive cloud and data modernization, improve delivery predictability, and build secure, compliant platforms with measurable business outcomes.

I am an executive technology leader with a proven record of scaling engineering, data, and platform organizations across healthcare and enterprise environments. I align technology strategy, portfolio management, and OKRs with measurable delivery outcomes to build secure, compliant, and reliable digital ecosystems.

I have led global teams—up to 125 engineers—standardized SDLC and DevOps practices, and improved on-time delivery from 24% to 78%. My work includes cloud modernization on Azure, Microsoft 365, and strong focus on data governance, identity, and security frameworks such as HIPAA and SOC 2.

I hold an M.S. in Data Science and deliver measurable business value through portfolio governance, architecture patterns, and reproducible operating models that reduce risk, improve margins, and accelerate adoption of modern platforms.
