Executive Overview

I'm a global technology executive who modernizes enterprises through AI, cloud, and data-driven transformation. I build and scale digital platforms that improve customer experiences, unlock new revenue, and enable efficient enterprise operations. With executive leadership experience spanning Amazon, Molson Coors, Northwestern Mutual, and Kohl's, I've scaled $150M+ global technology portfolios and built resilient, intelligent digital ecosystems that accelerate business growth and deliver digital innovation. I'm a builder - of systems, team, and culture. I thrive in complex environments where technology, data, and innovation converge to reinvent how business operates. I specialize in connecting product strategy with technology execution - using AI, data, and platform thinking to accelerate growth and create digital ecosystems that last. From launching Amazon's global grocery delivery platform to building an AI-enabled manufacturing connected worker at Molson Coors, my approach blends innovation with measurable business results. What drives me is helping organizations evolve - architecting future-ready platforms, empowering teams through agile and product operating models, and embedding AI, cloud, and data-driven decision-making into every layer of the enterprise. Core Competencies: Enterprise IT Transformation | Product Strategy & Vision | AI/ML & Data Innovation | Digital Platform Development | Experience Design (CX/EX) | Agile Product Leadership | Cloud & ERP Modernization | Cybersecurity & Governance | IT Portfolio Leadership | Executive Stakeholder Engagement | IT Financial Management
