ABOUT ME

Where practical leadership meets curiosity.

My work is rooted in a simple question: how can complex operations become safer, more reliable, and more efficient?

I work in operations leadership at Amazon, with experience in performance improvement, process quality, and frontline execution. Alongside my professional responsibilities, I am pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration at Southern New Hampshire University and developing interests in complexity science and applied research.

I am especially interested in the connections between operational defects, cascading delays, team decision-making, and system-wide performance.
