I'm seeking a senior program or strategic operations leadership role owning complex, cross-functional initiatives from planning through launch. I do my best work with clear accountability for schedule, budget, and results. I bring 25+ years of delivering results in regulated environments and am eager to lead teams and apply new technology, including AI.

GTM and Revenue Operations leader at Chevron Federal Credit Union who launched a lending channel that funded $83MM in its first year.
What I'm looking for
At Chevron Federal Credit Union, I led an evaluation of AI providers for customer service, from discovery and business case development through RFP design, risk assessment, and vendor selection. I also translated operational needs into implementation-ready requirements for AI-enabled workflows.
I designed and launched a new lending channel that generated over $4MM in funded sales volume in its first 30 days and $83MM in its first 12 months. At Renew Financial, I launched a tiered-pricing structure and helped increase applications by 15% through remote-selling training and support resources.
Across sales operations roles at Bank of the West and Citi, I developed territory and capacity-planning processes, revised compensation plans, and delivered sales and marketing programs. At Citi, I also managed financial-education initiatives and partnerships focused on improving outcomes in underserved communities.
