Major Incident Manager driving rapid, compliant IT incident mitigation and faster problem resolution with ServiceNow.

What I'm looking for

I’m looking to run major incident command and problem-management lifecycles in organizations where ServiceNow governance, clear leadership communication, and fastest possible mitigation are treated as the priority.

I’ve led major incident management bridges and post-mortems across Navient and LPL Financial, keeping leadership updated in ServiceNow with priority, start time, business impact, and resolution strategies.

At The Home Depot, I drive major incidents while aligning ServiceNow data validation with governance practices, and I report daily to CTO, CIO, and SVP stakeholders to keep environments stable.

I also facilitate the Special Project “First Watch Operational Command Center,” focusing on preventing outages, minimizing downtime, and improving situational awareness across retail stores, e-commerce, and distribution channels.

Before that, I improved incident/problem processes at Direct Energy—reducing incident aging time and streamlining investigations—using ITIL ticket tracking and problem management lifecycle changes to prevent repeat occurrences.
