    My Journey

    I specialize in the the advancement of technology to aid in explosive business growth. I focus on software evaluation, setting the strategy, executing for results, leading teams to extraordinary outcomes, and building relationships to ensure user adoption. I have founded and grown engineering organizations to build the developer tools, data capabilities, and infrastructure to support every developer building or integrating with our ecosystems. Ensured systems and infrastructure are powerful, reliable, performant for the teams I support.

I knew at this juncture I had chosen the right path! I went on to hold project management roles at EDS/ATKearney and also a unique Client Solution Manager role at SAP America and SAP AG focusing on clients in the Americas and Asia.

    Los Angeles Food Bank

    Patron, Give Back Day Organization

    Community support enables the Food Bank to serve more than 300,000 people every month. Approximately one-quarter of their food goes to children, and roughly one-fifth ends up in the hands of older adults. It is estimated that only 10% of their food goes to the homeless, but this is an important population for them.. The majority of this organization's food goes to low-income families and individuals who sometimes struggle to make ends meet.
