Career
Timeline
A decade of building software, leading teams, and continuously learning. Here's where I've been and what I've accomplished.
Director, AI & Applications
I lead AI development across our company, bridging the gap between boardroom strategy and production code. On any given day, I might be presenting our AI roadmap to executives, then diving into Python to integrate LLMs into our ERP systems, or architecting AI solutions on Azure.
What drives me is positioning our organization at the cutting edge of AI adoption—not just talking about innovation, but shipping it.
- Transformed management from AI-curious to AI-committed through tailored education sessions and business case development
- Empowered teams to confidently leverage AI through practical training and ongoing support
- Delivered measurable ROI: AI agents and bots I built save users 25% of their time, eliminating hours of manual work daily
Director, Applications
When two midsize drilling companies merged, I led the complete technology integration. This meant consolidating ERP systems, custom applications, and content management platforms—while migrating everything from on-premise infrastructure to Azure—all without disrupting daily operations.
The project required balancing technical complexity with organizational change, uniting two different tech cultures into one cohesive platform. We delivered a unified system that gave the merged company clean infrastructure and a single source of truth from day one.
- Manage enterprise ERP platforms that 1,000+ users across 6 regions depend on daily—keeping critical business operations running smoothly
- Built a change control framework that cut deployment incidents by 12%—fewer late nights, happier users
- Designed our business continuity strategy to hit 99.9% uptime
- Lead our cross-functional Change Advisory Board, coordinating releases across teams while balancing speed and stability
- Modernized decades-old ERP integrations using Azure Integration Services—replacing brittle point-to-point connections with scalable, maintainable solutions
