Biography
I am a visionary IT leader focused on leveraging technology for business innovation and effectiveness, currently serving as the CIO at The ODP Corporation. With over 22 years of experience across two continents, and based in South Florida since 2006, I am renowned for my innovative, strategic thinking, building teams and a commitment to continuous learning.
At The ODP Corporation, I spearheaded several transformative IT initiatives. I pioneered the early adoption of cloud in early 2011, through AWS, drove SaaS moving key business workloads to the cloud such as Supply Chain, Finance and Snowflake and other cutting-edge applications. Currently, I am at the forefront of AI adoption, driven by the promise of digital transformation and an increase in productivity and value it brings to our employees' daily experiences.
My expertise includes strategic budget allocation and investment prioritization, ensuring resources are directed toward initiatives with measurable impact on revenue growth, operational efficiency, cost reduction, and employee experience enhancement. I have successfully implemented a rigorous evaluation process for proposed projects, optimizing investments that deliver increased revenue, streamlined operations, reduced costs, and enhanced workplace environments.
I am proficient in fostering a culture of transparency and open communication, ensuring consistent, clear, and repetitive messaging across all levels of the organization to drive alignment and accountability.
Actively involved in the tech community, I foster innovation and support talent development through nonprofit board work, mentoring, and college involvement. I have introduced Hackathon events to The ODP Corporation, encouraging a culture of creativity and problem-solving. As a continuous learner, I stay at the forefront of technology trends, and advancing AI technology.
A dual British and U.S. citizen with a French spouse and two American children, I often enjoy family time on the water or in the mountains.
