Senior technology strategy leader delivering digital transformation and customer-centered change for aviation and beyond.
What I'm looking for
I’m a senior technology strategy and transformation leader with 25+ years spanning specialistsports and cycling distribution, sourcing, logistics, and customer service—built around one constant: delivering exceptional customer experiences.
In my current work with major Gulf aviation clients, I lead the design of next-generation digital frameworks and operational roadmaps tailored to regional regulatory and business requirements, with a strong focus on long-term strategy and sustained success.
I’ve contributed to business development and practice growth, delivering ERP implementations, defining desired future states, and running strategic visioning and validation workshops. I also mentor and coach junior team members to build consulting capabilities and foster a high-performance culture.
Across consulting and commercial roles, I’ve helped shape operating models, customer journeys, and service delivery—using workshops, process mapping, stakeholder management, and change management. I’m especially energized by roles that combine strategic technology, transformation execution, and practical outcomes for complex, high-stakes environments like airports.
