What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can lead infrastructure and data modernization, own roadmaps, mentor teams, and deliver measurable operational and business impact.

I am a Technical Product Owner and enterprise IT leader with 10+ years delivering infrastructure, data, and digital transformation initiatives across higher education and large-scale commercial environments. I own roadmaps end-to-end, translate strategy into executable epics and user stories, and lead cross-functional engineering, operations, and analytics teams to improve predictability, uptime, and measurable business outcomes.

My recent roles include supporting Network Operations and Data Center teams at a major university and managing BI and trading analytics teams in the private sector, where I aligned analytics to revenue strategy, improved sprint transparency, and built executive KPI reporting. I prioritize platform modernization, backlog governance, and stakeholder collaboration to drive operational impact and sustainable delivery.
