Strategic R&D Operations Leadership
Technology is forcing the evolution of how teams work.
I’m here to help.
I embed with leadership to build the operating systems their teams need to do their best work. The gap between a strong team and their strongest work is almost always operational, and I close it by starting at the root cause rather than the first symptom to surface. What I build drives alignment and continuous improvement, with accountability that holds at every level, not just at the top.
I don’t build something only I can run. If you have an operations leader in place, I partner with them; if you don’t, I step into the role myself and lead from design through adoption. Either way, you’re left with a system your team owns and can operate without me.

Titles I hold
No. 01 — Chief of Staff
The thought partner and operating arm executives need to lead with clarity and actually execute. I close the gap between strategy and ground truth.
No. 02 — Product & Engineering Operations
The function that lets your strongest teams operate at their highest level. Built from zero at Mural and Instruqt, rebuilt at NatGeo and Huntress.
No. 03 — Program Director
Programs too complex, too cross-functional, or too high-stakes to run without senior ownership. I can pitch it, architect it, or run it end to end.
