I am a technologist and product leader with over 20 years’ experience, creating solutions and mitigating risk at the tangled intersection of advertising, marketing, privacy, legal, and compliance. As Sr Director of Digital Infrastructure at Walmart, I create governance to safely and securely deploy web technologies including, server to server, real-time data sharing implementations, browser-based, privacy-enhancing solutions and back-end data privacy enhancements. I advise tech teams and support legal teams on regulatory compliance, policy content, and litigation. I lead three important teams who collectively play a critical role in maintaining Walmart's regulatory compliance with international and domestic privacy regulations: Digital Infrastructure, Privacy and Enterprise Privacy Risk Assessment. I am a strong team leader with a track record of successful projects implemented through agile development methodologies. I am adept at simplifying complex technological matters for any audience through written or verbal communications. I have presented on the main stage of events, represented various companies on panels, and have been quoted by major media outlets including NPR, the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, and USA Today. I’ve held previous leadership roles at Microsoft, The Interactive Advertising Bureau (IAB), HUMAN Security, and Index Exchange.
