Experience
Global Director of SAP Coe North America, and Global - s 4hana Upgrades, Generative Ai
Techstone Technology Partners Llc
Sep 2024 — Present · Houston, TX, US
I lead SAP S/4HANA strategy and license sales across North America, LATAM, Canada, and APAC. I work closely with CIOs, CFOs, and SAP account executives to shape digital transformation roadmaps, structure licensing for maximum ROI, and guide clients through Clean Core architecture and ECC-to-S/4 migration planning. My focus is on aligning enterprise needs with sustainable, scalable solutions that reduce TCO and accelerate deployment- I drive the ongoing development of our SAP Center of Excellence (COE), with a strong emphasis on Generative AI, intelligent automation, and hypergrowth enablement. I integrate AI capabilities directly into SAP environments to optimize workflows, enhance decision-making, and support ESG reporting and compliance. By leveraging Boomi, Qlik, and cloud-native tools, I help clients build agile, data-driven enterprises that are future-ready and innovation-led- I lead business development and strategy efforts by identifying emerging client needs, creating C-level value propositions, and cultivating long-term relationships across Strategic Industries. I work across internal teams and partner ecosystems to shape go-to-market initiatives, co-innovate solution models, and drive pipeline growth, positioning TechStone as a trusted advisor in Digital Transformation, ESG, and AI-led enterprise evolution. Boomi, SAP, Qlik and other applications are fully leveraged
