At Johnson Controls, I led a global FinOps program governing multi-million annual cloud spend. Through utilization analysis, strategic governance, and commitment-based optimization, I reduced multi-cloud costs by 25% annually.

I designed and managed automated financial dashboards and reporting, giving stakeholders granular visibility into cloud usage and costs. I also served as the primary FinOps point of contact for major cloud providers.

As Cloud Delivery Lead, I led a pipeline of cloud migration initiatives, coordinating teams moving customer-facing applications from on-premise to cloud while helping maintain service availability. I also consolidated data center strategy and Business Continuity Plan information to strengthen continuity planning and reduce operational risk.

Earlier at Johnson Controls, I managed global IT operations and supervised operational support teams. My work included ITIL-based problem management, root cause analysis, incident escalation, and server infrastructure support; in that administrator role, I maintained 99.9% uptime for key services.
