What I'm looking for

I'm looking to lead complex operations, program delivery, process transformation, and technical operations for organizations scaling across markets, teams, systems, and suppliers.

I've built and exited a POS software company and a self-hosted streaming media platform, owning operations, product delivery, field deployment, and client support end to end.

At Poaware, I rebuilt product development operations around agile execution and automation, accelerating delivery cycles by 30% while directing custom software delivery from requirements through deployment. I also led cross-functional engineering and operations teams serving international clients.

Previously, I delivered multi-million-dollar capital projects at The Boldt Company with 100% adherence to scope, budget, and schedule, and increased regional response rates 20% through federal outreach programs at the U.S. Department of Commerce. I now advise U.S. and international clients on cross-border operations, supplier strategy, systems integration, and infrastructure scaling.
