What I'm looking for

I seek a senior program leadership role in fintech or consumer digital products that leverages UX and applied AI, offers cross-functional impact, autonomy, and opportunities to mentor teams in a collaborative, growth-focused culture.

I am a program management and digital strategy leader with 15+ years driving strategic initiatives across fintech and high-growth environments. I bring a pragmatic, design-thinking approach to delivering customer-focused digital products and experiences.

At Capital One and ING Direct I led cross-functional teams, managed post-merger integrations, and built capacity planning and delivery models that supported 200+ annual marketing projects and multi-workstream programs.

I founded and ran a full-service events company and have led large employee engagement and brand campaigns that produced measurable lifts, including a 25% increase in brand awareness over 12 months. I continuously pursue professional development in AI, UX, and digital transformation.

I recently paused my corporate career for family priorities and returned with sharpened negotiation, risk management, and emotional intelligence skills. I am passionate about applying applied AI and emerging tech to improve digital customer experiences and team performance.
