About

With over 17 years of software development experience and 7 years of engineering management experience, I am a seasoned leader who can build and run high-performing teams, coach engineers and leaders, and deliver customer-centric solutions. At Atlassian, I lead the incident management, knowledgbase and search roadmap for Jira Service Management, a product that enables users to build high-velocity teams and deliver more customer impact while managing risk. I am responsible for developing new capabilities, achieving operational excellence for microservices. My currect projects include delivering AI capabilities in JSM. Before joining Atlassian, I worked at Adobe and IBM, where I gained expertise in cloud technologies, object-oriented design patterns, and agile product development. I managed the Adobe Cloud platform for file sync, which offers a seamless experience across all devices and online and offline states. I also contributed to several patents and innovations in the graphical development environment domain. My mission is to drive innovation and excellence in my organization, and to empower and inspire others to do the same. I am passionate about solving complex problems, creating value for customers, and building an open, diverse and inclusive engineering culture.
