## About Me

I am an operations leader with more than 20 years of experience helping SaaS, e-commerce, and technology-enabled businesses scale sustainably.

I specialize in turning strategy into execution, building the processes, systems, and team structures that improve performance and support growth across multiple markets.

Throughout my career, I have led operational transformation, customer success, IT operations, and cross-functional delivery with a strong focus on measurable outcomes.

I have a track record of reducing customer attrition, improving service reliability, and driving revenue growth even in challenging market conditions.

I enjoy working across operations, marketing, product, and customer-facing teams to create alignment, accountability, and long-term commercial impact.

I bring a calm, structured, and hands-on leadership style, and I am comfortable operating at both strategic and execution levels to solve complex business problems.
