About
I am a technology leader with more than 15 years of experience across infrastructure, network operations, SAP platforms, cloud transformation, governance, cybersecurity, and enterprise service delivery.
My work has focused on building resilient technology environments, leading large-scale modernization initiatives, and improving service quality, continuity, operational maturity, and business performance in complex retail organizations.
Across my career, I have led pioneering cloud and SAP transformation initiatives, supported multi-country infrastructure consolidation, and strengthened governance and cybersecurity capabilities in business-critical environments.
