About

I am an operations, supply chain and strategy leader with 10+ years of experience helping companies across tech, consumer and industrial businesses on topics that range from large scale operations transformations to strategy. In my current role I lead strategic initiatives for Google Cloud's Customer Engineering organization to help enable growth across Gemini Enterprise and Google Cloud. My previous experience covers nearly all operational topics (procurement, product development, manufacturing, service ops and CapEx) but with a focus on end-to-end supply chain including segmentation, demand planning, inventory management, supply planning, S&OP/IBP, network optimization, supplier collaboration, warehousing, and logistics. Over my career, I've developed a passion for leading teams and developing people. I'm proud of my track record of building trust-based relationships, influencing diverse teams and stakeholders, and leveraging rigorous problem-solving to address complex challenges and drive change.
