What I'm looking for

I'm looking to lead enterprise technology, cybersecurity, cloud modernization, and AI integration initiatives while building collaborative, high-performing teams and making strategic technology investments.

At Oakview Group/UBS Arena, I lead enterprise technology strategy, daily operations, cybersecurity, infrastructure, and digital services. I manage a $2M+ technology budget, build governance and compliance programs, and advise executive leadership on technology investments.

I've led Zero Trust, identity and access, cloud, and infrastructure modernization initiatives across Deep Instinct and Thomas Publishing, including hybrid-cloud migration and 99% service delivery satisfaction. I build and mentor cross-functional teams while creating secure, scalable platforms and integrating AI into core business functions.
