About Me

Hello, everyone. Thanks for stopping by! 

I'm a leader in financial services with a history of driving change across operational and product teams. I'm currently leading a team of product managers in payable solutions for the commercial bank where we are striving to provide an excellent client experience, reduce payments friction for businesses, and innovate to simplify payables across client segments. I'm combining operational experience with payment strategy to deliver on the bank's strategic agenda. I strive to instill an innovative culture in the teams I lead and interact with. 

When I am not thinking payments or analytics I am travelling the world, playing trombone, listening to podcasts, hitting the gym, or training for my next race.
