I lead calmly, simplify complexity, and create teams anchored in trust and clarity. Rooted by adventure with family and our Weimaraner, I bring discipline balanced by empathy—enabling people to thrive, innovate, and make an impact beyond code.
At our office in St. Petersburg, Florida, I partnered with product, design, and engineering leaders to align on growth strategy and delivery priorities for Dayforce Wallet—enabling same-day pay for over 845K users and driving scalable, human-centered fintech innovation.
During my graduate studies at Thomas University, a small school in southwest Georgia, I balanced leadership, work, and family responsibilities. Walking in convocation reminded me that growth isn’t always linear—steady learning amid real-life demands can still move you forward.
In 2001, I climbed Springer Mountain—the southern gateway of the Appalachian Trail—for a quiet reset. That trailhead marked a turning point, grounding me in motion, reflection, and the discipline to rebuild when life had lost direction.

At Camp Darby, a U.S. Army post tucked between Pisa and Livorno in coastal Italy, I operated encrypted HF burst comms in an AN/TSC-99 shelter. Those long hours taught me that precision and accountability matter—whether you’re securing battlefield traffic or scaling cloud platforms.
