About

Operations leader with experience scaling a fast-growing, startup-like government organization (tripled headcount in two years) by implementing OKRs, operating cadences, reporting structures, and decision/escalation frameworks. Has led complex process turnarounds (including a debt-collection overhaul with legal coordination and an appeals board) and advises executives on high-stakes public communications during critical-infrastructure cybersecurity incidents using data-driven decisioning.
