About

I am passionate about improving everyday people's lives. I do this by creating and scaling beloved consumer businesses, inventing the "new and the next" with highly motivated teams. Over my 25+ year career, I’ve driven step-change growth and profitability, integrating strategy, operations, and technology to deliver delightful customer experiences. At Amazon, I lead Prime globally—a $20B+ business serving 200MM+ members across 26 countries. I’ve expanded the program to 14 additional countries and increased its value through fast delivery, savings, entertainment, grocery, health benefits and more. Earlier, I launched Disney’s newest vacation experiences, including MyMagic+ and Shanghai Disneyland. I led Target’s e-commerce business and the shift to omnichannel retail. I began my career at General Mills and BCG. Fortune named me one of the 25 most powerful rising executives for shaping the future of membership-based businesses.
