Growing Oly's footprint in retail while building the people processes that enable us to scale. I own growth initiatives in retail: exploring how real-time operational visibility helps leaders make faster decisions. I'm always learning and working towards what matters to retail operations and how technology actually fits into how stores work. On the people side, I've built our processes around the team from the ground up—designing how teams communicate, hire, perform, and grow together. As we scale, I continue evolving these systems to stay human-centered. At the core of both: I believe strong organizations are built on clarity, accountability, and people who feel genuinely supported. I partner closely with managers and leadership to strengthen how we work together—creating processes and systems that are both efficient and empathetic. Building growth that sticks. Protecting culture that matters.

About

I work at the intersection of people, business, and technology. From building People Operations systems and driving talent strategy to experimenting with AI, building HR tech, and exploring solutions, I enjoy turning messy problems into practical, scalable systems. My strength lies in connecting the dots between people, processes, and business goals, and making things work better than they did before. I like solving problems more than staying in boxes. Let's build something better!
