I’m a results-driven, creative, and people-first leader who thrives at the intersection of strategy, innovation, and execution.After a decade in luxury retail and hospitality — curating product assortments, managing vendors, and launching high-visibility pop-up experiences — I made a career pivot into the tech space to bring that same operational excellence to Procurement and Supply Chain.Today at Axon, I lead purchasing strategy across indirect, packaging, and dropship operations — scaling processes that make complex systems simple and efficient. I’m passionate about building infrastructure that supports growth, using technology and AI to work smarter, and leading teams that collaborate boldly and think big.
