What I'm looking for
I am an AI-focused operations leader with a decade of enterprise operations and customer-success experience, dedicated to translating AI capability into measurable organizational productivity gains.
I have led system-wide AI implementations and trained 100+ professionals, delivering consistent time savings—often 8+ hours weekly—through workflow redesign and custom GPT applications.
My background spans executive operations roles managing multi-site budgets and staff, enterprise software operations at Thomson Reuters, and hands-on AI technical projects including prompt engineering, n8n automation, and local AI infrastructure for privacy-sensitive use cases.
I combine stakeholder management, change leadership, and practical technical proficiency to drive adoption, optimize processes, and realize six-figure cost savings potential for mission-driven organizations.
