About

Technology leader working in a leadership role within the region's leading energy company. In my previous job I held various positions ranging from the hands-on technical to the strategic and transformational. I have extensive technical pre-sales / architecture, business development and problem-solving experience. I have experience managing large teams of high performing technical architects and bring the right mix of technical and commercial sensibilities in discussions with CTO and CIO teams over cloud and digital adoption. I am equal parts comfortable giving elevator pitches and high level recommendations to C- level audiences and key decision makers as I am solution-ing and whiteboarding target architecture diagrams to customer IT teams.
