Welcome to my place, can I offer you anything to drink or eat?
Passions
Doesn't matter if it's a community, a sports team, or your work environment. We need Psychological Saftey present, a learning culture, and we need to be positively contagious!
Some little nuggets about my family.
I want to get my hands dirty. Not just be in leadership role, which my favorite part is discussion around personal development. I want to prove myself and show I can also help get things done, where it makes sense.
I was born with a Hockey Stick in my hand. My father coached me and I coached my kids... I love the game!
About Me
I love my FAMILY, Software Engineering, Thought Leadership, Culture, and Ice Hockey!
I find motivation and passion behind building high performing engineering teams, being involved in an engineering cultured company and open by default approach to communications. I have experience in influencing cultures on teams I have worked on that have tenants of trust, default to open, customer focused, winning spirit, product mindset, and cost consciousness. I truly love teams and organization culture, thus my entire career has been with the same company developing and leading teams in building Technology Solutions for the Travel Industry, these teams range from Software Development to Operation teams.
I am an experienced Product and Technology leader with a demonstrated history of being outcome driven. I am a proven performance-driven leader, who has led and implemented transformative technology strategies across a Global Technology Organization and I am extremely passionate about culture!
