Strategy and execution in equal measure

I'm a builder at heart. Someone who thrives where strategy meets execution. The work I love most is creating the systems, alignment, and accountability that turn an ambitious plan into a number you can count on.
I've owned this work from standing up Strategic Initiatives to leading company-wide Revenue Operations. I've designed operating models, built compensation systems, established forecasting discipline, and partnered with executive teams on the strategy behind every number. I've also led partner programs, enablement organizations, and the leaders who run them—because no operating system outperforms the people inside it.
What I believe: complexity is the enemy of execution. The best operating models are designed in partnership, not handed down. And great work is useful, playful, and willing to question how it's always been done.
