About

As a seasoned executive with over 15 years of experience across transformation, operational restructuring, and M&A, I have a strong track record of driving EBITDA growth, cost optimization, and strategic expansion within industrial and transportation sectors. In my roles as Chief Digital Officer, Group Vice President, and COO, I’ve led initiatives that have consistently delivered top- and bottom-line impacts, from cloud modernization to P&L management for billion-dollar business units. My experience spans Large Corporate and Private Equity-backed middle-market growth scenarios, where I've transformed legacy systems into modern, cloud-based architectures, significantly reducing technology costs and enhancing security. I've spearheaded successful acquisitions, carve-outs, and integrations, ensuring that each endeavor bolstered our strategic footprint and contributed to sustained organic growth. I’m passionate about building high-performance teams and cultivating cultures of continuous improvement. From managing global engineering and product development teams to executing on SaaS product launches that enabled our customers to achieve industry leading asset utilization rates, my leadership approach is grounded in cross-functional alignment and operational excellence. If you’re looking for strategic insights into digital transformation, M&A execution, or operational scalability, let’s connect. Together, we can drive substantial value and shape the digital future of your organization.
