I'm a problem-solver with a background in satellite and terrestrial distribution, audio engineering, and product strategy. I'm drawn to complex challenges—whether optimizing satellite grooming, refining workflows, or supporting commercialization efforts with clarity and analysis. My work helped increase deal value by 16% and supported broadcasters in reaching over 169M households across the Americas.
I bring a holistic, thoughtful mindset to collaborative work, especially navigating technical or strategic ambiguity. I am trusted for navigating ambiguity and aligning teams to deliver results with both clarity and impact.
