Member Bio

Think big. Have a global perspective. Be Honest, work hard, have fun, show gratitude and pay-it-forward. Work smart and be conscious of mother earth. Treat everyone with respect and kindness. These are some of my values.
As a strategic IT executive, I have a proven history of delivering business transformations with relentless customer focus, developing strategy/vision and managing large, high-performing distributed teams. By leading multi-million-dollar modernization programs, I have driven scaled adoption of new technologies and maximized service delivery. I am also committed to empowering and motivating diverse, global teams to innovate and propel change in highly regulated environments. I believe firmly in enabling teams to learn and adopt Lean start-up principles and product-driven methodologies to rapidly deliver incremental value.

Broad Technical Capabilities
Over the course of my career, I have gained expertise in working with and leading enterprise-wide digital transformations, technology modernizations and more. I have driven a 65% increase in overall net promoter score (NPS), improving digital engagement, self-service, straight-through-processing and the overall customer experience of a $400B assets under management (AUM) company by delivering targeted digital capabilities.

Global Leadership
I believe that in order to achieve great execution, you must have great teams. During my career, I’ve spent considerable energy on building high-performing teams, breaking down silos, enabling collaboration, and encouraging innovation. As I have advanced into various management roles, I have had the privilege of building and leading several high-performing teams across the world. As the head of data and analytics for Corebridge Financial, I built a data platform team staffing it with highly skilled data architects and engineers.

Strategic Mindset
I have an extensive history of building business and IT strategies that closely align with business needs by collaborating with business executives and leaders to develop strategies that transform ways of working, organizational effectiveness, team productivity, and more

As a forever student, I’m grateful for the experiences and lessons learned. I’m excited about technology advancements and to be involved in building truly innovative products and digital services that will fundamentally transform how we live, work, and function as a modern society. I strongly believe in leaving behind a better planet for our children and future generations than the one we inherited.
