About

From the kitchen to the close.

I started behind the line as an Executive Chef, where I learned that great hospitality is really great operations — anticipating needs, communicating clearly, and showing up consistently.

Today I bring that same energy to sales and customer success — managing high-volume portfolios, partnering cross-functionally, and helping clients get every ounce of value from the platforms they buy.

Industries I've grown in: hospitality, technology, and service. The thread that ties them together is the same one that started in the kitchen — take care of people, and the numbers take care of themselves.
