Things I Can Do:
- Focus on Enabling People: I prioritize creating work environments where people feel supported, heard, and empowered. I believe in fostering employee well-being and ensuring that teams have the resources and autonomy they need to succeed, which drives both performance and retention.
- Lead High-Impact Projects: I’ve led a variety of complex projects, managing everything from the acquisition of advanced technologies to multi-million-dollar nuclear system overhauls. I'm good at turning high-level objectives into concrete, actionable steps to help teams focus and deliver results.
- Business and Technical Problem Solving: I’ve tackled tough challenges in high-pressure, resource-constrained environments, where innovative thinking and quick decision-making were essential. My experience in submarine operations refined my ability to address complex technical issues efficiently. I've further improved my ability to model and address business problems by continuing my education formally in this area, earning a certificate in "Understanding and Solving Complex Business Problems" from MIT Sloan School of Management Executive Education Program.
- Build and Lead High-Performance Teams: I know what it takes to build teams that work well together and achieve their goals. I’ve led teams in stressful situations, creating a culture of trust, accountability, and collaboration to drive success.
- Facilitate Collaboration: I’m experienced in managing stakeholders at all levels—from technical experts to senior leadership—ensuring that everyone is aligned and working toward the same goals. My ability to foster cross-functional communication has been key to the success of every project I’ve managed.
- Improve Processes: I’ve consistently identified ways to optimize processes, whether improving quality assurance systems or streamlining operational workflows. I focus on eliminating inefficiencies to ensure that products and projects are delivered on time and to the highest standards. There is nothing that bothers me more in an organizational environment than unnecessary administration or authorization slowing down a team's work.
