What I'm looking for

I seek senior roles leading eDiscovery, information governance, or data management programs where I can modernize workflows, mentor teams, integrate tools, and ensure defensible, cost-effective discovery and compliance.

I am a seasoned Information Technology executive with nearly three decades of experience in eDiscovery, computer forensics, data management, and information governance, skilled at building and maturing programs in both public and private sectors.

I have led teams and operations across federal and financial institutions, implemented and integrated industry tools (Relativity, Microsoft Purview, Exterro, AccessData, Proofpoint, EnCase, FTK), automated processes (ServiceNow workflows, ticketing, cloud transition) and managed multi-hundred-thousand dollar budgets to deliver defensible, cost-saving discovery outcomes.

I mentor diverse technical teams, advise legal and executive stakeholders on strategy and compliance, and drive process improvements using analytics and AI to reduce scope, time, and cost while preserving data integrity and regulatory compliance.
