A passionate advocate for leveraging technology to deliver business value, with a commitment to ethical and sustainable practices.
High emotional intelligence, capable of navigating the complexities of change management and cultural transformation.
An analytical mindset, adept at making data-driven decisions and demonstrating the business value of IT investments.
