About me

Origin Story


I grew up on a farm in rural Virginia, where I learned that hard work, integrity, and an authentic drive can take you anywhere. That background shaped my leadership style — practical, grounded, and relentlessly curious.


Career and Expertise


With experience spanning the Department of War and Microsoft, I’ve led digital transformation for organizations of over 20,000 people, bridging technical, operational, and leadership domains. My expertise lies in AI strategy, data governance, and change leadership — helping teams move from PowerPoint to performance. This journey has reinforced my belief in the discipline required to achieve lasting change.


Personal Passions


I’m a competitive bodybuilder, painter, and writer. My diet fuels my fitness discipline; art brings me joy and keeps me present; and writing keeps me honest. Each of these passions teaches the same lesson: progress is born in the reps you do when no one is watching.
