I serve as a trusted advisor to executive leadership on portfolio governance, prioritization, and future-state strategy across multi-state operations.Previously, at Qualcomm, I delivered $25M in cost savings while scaling global IT operations supporting thousands of users, operating in highly complex, fast-moving technology environments. Earlier in my career, I led large operational teams in the U.S. Navy, developing disciplined execution, resilience, and the ability to lead through high-stakes change.Today, I operate at the intersection of healthcare, technology, and leadership—building enterprise capabilities, developing high-performing teams, and helping organizations transition from execution-focused delivery to future-ready, strategy-driven operations
