About Carrie Wallace White

I make technology work for people, not the other way around.As a data, tech and operations leader, I specialize in turning messy, fragmented systems into something that actually makes sense—and then getting everyone on board to use them. I\'ve spent 20+ years in the building teams, modernizing infrastructure, and proving that good technology strategy isn\'t about the shiniest tools. It\'s about solving the right problems.I\'m a translator. Between IT and end users. Between executives and practitioners. Between \"this is how we\'ve always done it\" and \"here\'s what\'s actually possible.\" I ask questions others don\'t (or won\'t), find the patterns people miss, and build solutions that stick.I believe culture drives results, not the other way around. That data should tell you something useful, not just exist. And that humor and humanity aren\'t soft skills—they\'re survival skills in complex organizations.I do my best work in ambiguous, high-stakes environments where the path forward isn\'t obvious. If you need someone to rebuild a team, overhaul operations, or drive transformation that people actually adopt, let\'s talk.Career Highlights→ Team Transformation – Repositioned a 30-person tech team from \"back office\" to strategic partner, building a transparent culture that helped drive 54% revenue growth→ Operational Overhaul – Unified fragmented workflows and boosted efficiency 27% through smarter strategy and tighter cross-functional alignment→ Data Maturity – Embedded analytics across departments to shift decision-making from reactive to proactive, decreasing cyber risk and raising organizational capability→ Culture & Retention – Built engagement strategies that delivered record-low turnover and stronger collaboration across the org→ Margin Growth – Modernized a dated tech stack with infrastructure that delivered 10% average annual margin increases→ CRM Migration – Led conversion from legacy system to modern CRM, increasing data completeness 17% and creating a single source of truth
