About My Work
Driving AI product strategy & innovation β turning models into real-world outcomes.
I sit between engineering and the business: deciding what a platform should do next, defining it clearly enough to build, and steering it through release without surprises.
My path runs from QA and Agile coaching through program management to product ownership at Cisco, FEI Systems, Optum and Capital One β so I know how products are tested, delivered and governed, not just planned.
Product Focus
Roadmaps, requirements, acceptance criteria and success metrics for platform and API products β including AI/ML-driven features β with decisions grounded in reliability, defect and adoption data.
Regulated Environments
Healthcare, financial services and government platforms where compliance, auditability and uptime matter as much as features. I plan releases around those constraints from day one.
Workday HCM Experience
Workday HCM certified, with hands-on experience supporting HR and payroll teams on Core HCM, business process configuration, EIB data loads, custom reporting and integrations β bringing the same product mindset to keeping Workday reliable and useful for the business.
