“I’m a numbers & systems person at heart.”

“I love understanding what the numbers are telling us, finding opportunities for improvement and then building the systems and processes that turn that information into action. For me, there’s something incredibly satisfying about taking something complex and finding a smarter, simpler way to make it work.”
