With my expertise in Business Strategy & Execution, I\'ve been instrumental in establishing a new Settlement & Financial Operations organization, in-sourcing capabilities, and establishing many new functions. My role as an advisor to senior leadership involves navigating unique challenges and directing significant business transformations.My tenure at KPMG US honed my ability to lead technology innovation, business transformation, and post-M&A integration for Fortune 500 firms, including banks, fintechs, and wealth management firms. With 10 years of experience in program management, agile product development, and continuous improvement, I have successfully managed the planning, execution, and delivery of multiple complex and high-impact projects, achieving key outcomes and exceeding client expectations.I am passionate about technology and product innovation, and I am always looking for new ways to learn and grow. I hold several professional certifications, such as PMP, LSSBB, CSPO, and SAFe PO/PM, and have completed my MBA with a focus on strategic innovation at the University of South Carolina. I also enjoy exploring different cultures and perspectives through travel and I have a keen interest in mechanical watches as a hobby. My goal is to leverage my skills, knowledge, and experience to drive growth and value for my team and organization.
