Hailing from Southern California with chapters in Kansas City, Rexburg, Region 03 in the Philippines, New York, and now Seattle, my life's journey has been rich with diverse experiences. In NYC, amidst the fast-paced rhythm and vibrant art scene, I found my passion for design and culture, along with the value of swift, efficient work—always led by empathy. As a doorman in Tribeca, I navigated the night shifts while attending FIT, proving that determination and compassion go hand in hand. This experience wasn't just about making ends meet; it was a lesson in understanding and connecting with people from all walks of life, an approach that has deeply influenced my design philosophy. Navigating the world of advertising, I sought out teams where talent and humility were in harmony, valuing places that nurture kindness and excellence. This journey wasn't just a quest for creative fulfillment but a mission to lead with empathy, ensuring that every project not only achieves its goals but also resonates on a human level. In every role, I've championed environments that are not only about doing great work but doing it with consideration and respect for others, reflecting my belief that at the heart of every successful endeavor lies a foundation of empathy.

A primary philosophy I lead by is CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENT. As an IT leader, this focus pays across the board dividends in increased customer satisfaction, operational efficiency and successful project delivery. With vast experience in IT infrastructure, information security and IT operations as well as being a tech visionary, I have led significant change within organizations that improved efficiency, reduced costs and advanced the company’s strategic plan. HIGHLIGHTS ► Forged the improvement and automation of processes across IT at a national construction firm. ► Curated the first-of-its-kind innovation lab to pilot new technology. ► Led multiple global platform transformations around infrastructure and collaboration. DEVELOPING PEOPLE I have a reputation for creating leaders and building strong cultures. With my focus on investing in my teams’ professional growth, I consistently receive the highest marks for morale and employee satisfaction. I was inspired early on in my career by a manager who invested in me. As a result, I seek to do the same for those with whom I work. I am proud to say that several of my team members have taken on leadership roles within the company and at other major companies. INFLUENCING BUSINESS GROWTH Getting stakeholders across the organization to embrace IT initiatives is one of my specialties. Leading with collaboration and relationships, I build credibility with my peers. I leverage it to gain their buy-in by demonstrating how IT solves business problems. IT wins and the company wins when solutions are presented in this way. Looking for a technology leader with a track record of leading change, process improvement and building new leaders? Let’s discuss how I can make a positive impact at your organization.
