About Me
Over the years and through managing multiple types of businesses and teams I've realized that clarity leads to better experiences for team members, managers, and stakeholders. Better experiences lead to better workplaces and to better lives for those involved. This is why I love operations and strategy. I strive for operational excellence in business, measuring what matters, reducing waste, and improving value streams.
