Starting at the bottom twenty years ago and working my way into this role has taught me many things. At the top of that list is: “Cap Data is only as good as our people”. The energy and work ethic my team brings to the office every day is incredible, and it shows in our deep and long term relationships with clients and partners. My passion is around getting to know each customer and personally interacting with them to better understand their business and unique challenges.

Passion, excellence and never-ending energy are at my core. It's part of the reason the culture at Cap Data is second to none. And it's a big reason why our engagements are measured in decades—not transactions. Our team members—your squad—are programmed for satisfaction and never stop pursuing excellence. I bring my best every day and welcome any challenge. More important, I don't stop until I know your experience with Cap Data is everything you expect it to be. Like my love for the outdoors, I consider every engagement an adventure with something new to experience at every turn. Ready for passion, excellence and energy? Let's go.
