My leadership journey began in the U.S. Navy, where I learned to align strategy, resources, and people to execute under pressure — lessons that continue to shape how I manage projects today.I’m especially passionate about working on initiatives that drive sustainable growth, modernize infrastructure, and accelerate the energy transition. Whether it’s managing large-scale construction, coordinating stakeholders, or streamlining operations, I thrive at the intersection of strategy and execution.
