I combine people-focused leadership with strong technical execution. My experience spans quality and performance engineering, release and change management, incident management, configuration and asset management, engineering standards, and product delivery.

I use Agile practices, DORA-inspired metrics, dashboards, and operational data to improve delivery predictability, quality, throughput, and customer outcomes. I have led large-scale transformation initiatives, including global QA modernization, engineering metrics adoption, and automated governance controls.

I am experienced in mentoring leaders, coaching teams, managing recruitment, addressing performance challenges, and aligning technology strategy with senior stakeholders and vendors. I value ownership, transparency, collaboration, continuous improvement, and customer-centric delivery.

I am also committed to diversity and inclusion in technology. I founded and scaled Women in Technology communities, supported mentoring initiatives, and created opportunities for women entering or progressing in technical careers.
