About

I am a systems thinker who leads from the front. Across startups, consulting, financial technology, and mission-driven organizations, I have worked where business strategy meets technology, and where the quality of the systems behind the work shapes what an organization can achieve.

Today, as National Director of Enterprise Systems at Planned Parenthood Federation of America, I lead a portfolio spanning finance, people, grants, fundraising, data, and the platforms that connect them. Earlier in my career, I built products and companies, led architecture across complex enterprises, and helped organizations make better decisions through clearer data and better software. I care as much about trust, adoption, and service as I do about architecture.

What I do

Enterprise transformation

I help organizations replace disconnected processes and aging technology with practical foundations that support the way people actually work.

Data and decision systems

I build the data, reporting, and operating rhythms leaders need to see what matters, make sound decisions, and act with confidence.

Technology and team leadership

I develop capable teams, create shared accountability with business partners, and bring an operator's discipline to product and technology delivery.
