Consulting Senior Director - Digital Capabilities @ Huron

About

I help organizations drive finance and business transformation by modernizing processes, optimizing operating models, and implementing scalable digital platforms that unlock efficiency, insight, and strategic growth.With 12+ years of experience in Workday Financials and enterprise finance transformation, I specialize in designing and delivering solutions that align financial systems with business strategy—bridging the gap between accounting, operations, and technology. My background as a Big 4 accountant, combined with an MSA and MBA from Babson College, gives me a strong foundation in accounting, finance, and business strategy, paired with a practical, execution-focused mindset.Over the course of my career, I’ve led dozens of complex implementations across financial systems architecture, accounting platforms, data and reporting, and end-to-end finance modernization. Clients rely on me not only for technical and architectural guidance, but for my ability to translate complexity into clear decisions, pragmatic roadmaps, and solutions that actually work in the real world.More recently, I’ve been focused on helping organizations unlock real, measurable ROI from AI and advanced analytics—moving beyond hype to practical use cases across finance, operations, and decision-making. Whether it’s automation, forecasting, close optimization, or data-driven insights, my goal is always the same: deliver tangible business outcomes, not just new technology.I’m known for a consultative, entrepreneurial approach—building trusted executive relationships, shaping transformation strategies, and driving solutions that create lasting value.
