About me

Trusted advisor to executive leadership across leading insurance and financial services organizations, bringing a customer-centric lens to complex business and transformation priorities. I translate customer and business needs into actionable strategies, align cross-functional stakeholders around a shared vision, and help mobilize enterprise change that drives measurable outcomes. A track record of delivering results in complex environments has established me as a reliable partner and change leader.

Outside of work, you'll usually find me training for my next half marathon or behind a camera exploring Connecticut's shoreline, forests, and wildlife. Running has taught me the value of consistency and long-term thinking, while nature photography has sharpened my patience, creativity, and appreciation for the details that often go unnoticed. Both hobbies fuel the same curiosity and continuous improvement mindset that I bring to my professional work.

You can follow my photography journey on Instagram and connect with me on Strava to see what I'm currently exploring and training for.
