What I'm looking for

I seek a role that fosters innovation and strategic growth in technology.

I am a seasoned technology executive with over 25 years of experience in business development and innovation across diverse industries. My entrepreneurial mindset drives me to identify and capitalize on IT trends that deliver high ROI through strategic solutions, AI, and automation. I have a proven track record of transforming concepts into valuable products while leading high-performing teams.

At KBR, I spearheaded automation initiatives and AI solutions that achieved a remarkable $5 million in cost savings and freed up over 1000 hours annually. My leadership in cross-departmental projects resulted in a 96% customer satisfaction rate. I am passionate about leveraging technology to optimize resource use and deliver significant returns on investment, as evidenced by my successful implementation of critical risk management systems across NASA.

As the founder of PetScrub, I developed an award-winning pet care solution that secured multi-year licensing agreements and achieved global market penetration. My commitment to innovation has been recognized with multiple patents, and I continuously strive to elevate brand recognition through strategic marketing and dynamic team collaboration.
