“Technology transformation leader who builds board-approved roadmaps and scales engineering orgs with strong Agile execution. Led large modernization efforts (e.g., Scottrade: 3,000 programs/4M LOC in 18 months) and scaled POCs into enterprise SaaS platforms using Docker, Kubernetes, Helm, and Terraform for high-concurrency workloads.”

“Startup and early-internet product leader with repeated experience building in new companies and executing pivots. Helped transform a web-based calendar business into a CMS + RBAC platform that became best-in-breed for US K-12 organizations within about three years, emphasizing ROI-driven prototyping and market validation to conserve resources.”

“Operations leader and advisor (former COO at College Partnership; also worked with Founders Advisors) who rebuilds and scales early-stage operations using Lean Startup experimentation and KPI-driven execution. Notably centralized a call-center function, implemented scripts/SLAs/metrics, and iterated staffing based on conversion and response-time data while mentoring non-ops founders on MVPs, SMART goals, and tactical operating plans.”
