CIO · CTO · Enterprise Transformation Executive
I partner with CEOs and boards to turn technology into competitive advantage — delivering AI-driven transformation, cost discipline, and organizations built to scale. 30+ years of enterprise technology leadership across Fortune 500 manufacturers, global insurers, apparel brands, engineering firms, SaaS leaders, hospitality firms and global media brands.
Three areas where I consistently move the needle for CEOs, boards, and shareholders.
Turning AI from pilot to production at enterprise scale — embedding GenAI across business processes, modernizing data platforms, and building the organizational capability to sustain it. Delivered measurable cycle time reductions, productivity gains of 90%+, and new underwriting and engineering capabilities at a major global insurer.
Rationalizing portfolios, exiting technical debt, and redeploying capital to growth. Examples include $40M+ in annual technology savings, $100M+ in cost reductions through a global operating model redesign, and $44M in workplace modernization savings — results that show up on the P&L, not just the IT budget.
Building high-performing IT organizations in complex, matrixed environments across multiple OpCos. I develop bench strength, instill engineering discipline, and create cultures where top talent stays and grows — examples include rebuilding global technology organizations from the ground up and launching an India delivery strategy at scale.
30+ years building and running technology at global companies across insurance, industrial automation, SaaS, engineering, apparel, entertainment, and hospitality.

Five principles that guide how I build teams, make decisions, and deliver results — drawn directly from 30 years in the field.
Technology must operate as a strategic partner to the business, not just a support function. Every investment traces to business outcomes — revenue, cost, risk, or customer experience.
I build and operate enterprise operating models that align technology capabilities directly to business outcomes, with clear accountability and velocity.
I lead high-performing organizations that combine architectural discipline with pragmatic delivery — simplifying complex technology landscapes to enable speed, resilience, and sustainable growth.
I develop technology organizations that attract, build, and retain world-class engineering and leadership talent. Great results come from great people with clear direction.
Simplicity enables speed and resilience — at the appropriate and transparent cost structure. I deliver honest, fact-based investment cases and hold myself accountable to the results.
Academic foundation, professional certifications, and board service.
I engage selectively with CEOs, boards, and search partners where technology is central to the business agenda. If the challenge is significant and the appetite for transformation is real — let's talk.
