I’m a strategist and systems thinker who helps people rethink the way they work with technology—bridging the gap between innovation and execution with clarity, purpose, and just enough rebellion. Whether it’s AI, automation, or collaboration platforms, I focus on shifting mindsets, not just tools-so teams can adopt tech without burnout and lead change without losing themselves in the process.

I’ve led digital transformation and AI initiatives across sectors like government, healthcare, education, and enterprise- always with a people-first, story-forward lens. I specialize in making tech relatable, untangling complexity, and helping organizations unlock real value from their investments, even in the messiest environments.

In my talks, I blend systems strategy, identity insight, and storytelling to guide audiences toward smarter adoption, cross-silo communication, and more intentional transformation. Because the real challenge with technology isn't the tech- it's how we think, build, and belong within the systems around it.
