People technology and operations, built to scale.
I help organizations make the right enterprise People technology decisions and design how the People function operates, then see both through. I bring 25 years of executive experience leading People technology and operations across global life sciences and high-growth technology organizations.
Where leadership teams bring me in
My work usually starts at a moment of growth or significant change, when the People function needs to be built, scaled or repositioned.
About
I am a People technology and operations executive with 25 years of experience across global life sciences, high-growth technology and multinational enterprises. Today I advise organizations independently, working at the intersection of strategy and execution. I help leadership teams make sound People technology and operating model decisions and remain engaged through delivery. This includes defining where AI can create meaningful value for the People function and how to adopt it responsibly.

How an engagement begins
A clear, low-commitment path from a first conversation to measurable progress.
Discovery conversation
A 30-minute discussion of your priorities, constraints and timeline. You’ll come away with an initial perspective on where to focus, whether or not we work together.

Execution and leadership
Ongoing advisory, a defined program, or interim leadership in the seat, structured around outcomes we agree up front.
Insights
A pragmatic view of AI in the People function
Most organizations have already invested in AI tools, yet few can point to measurable results. The difference rarely lies in the technology itself. It lies in the foundations: well-run platforms, workforce data that leaders trust, and processes redesigned before they are automated.
My approach reflects that. I establish those foundations first, then apply AI to clearly defined business problems, each with an accountable owner, appropriate controls and an agreed measure of success.
AI readiness assessment
A 15-question self-assessment that benchmarks your organization across People technology, operations and AI adoption. It takes about five minutes and gives an immediate view of your strengths and priorities. Responses are not stored.
