Work / What I do

Ideas become real through the work.

I work across strategy, systems, product, experience, marketing technology, AI, and team leadership. These case studies show how those disciplines come together in practice.

My approach

How I lead digital.

Set the direction

Turn business goals and customer insight into a clear digital strategy—deciding what matters, where to invest, and what to do next.

Build connected experiences

Bring product, marketing, commerce, and technology together around experiences that work for customers and deliver business value.

Turn strategy into progress

Connect priorities, platforms, and ways of working so teams can move from plans to delivery, learn through experimentation, and scale what works.

Lead teams through change

Create shared purpose across functions, develop people, and build the trust and accountability needed to move complex work forward.

Shape what comes next with AI

Translate AI and agentic commerce into practical choices for brands—how to adapt as people and AI agents discover, evaluate, and buy.
