Summary
Spanning over 30 years of public service, I have held numerous Executive level leadership positions with direct responsibility and accountability for large technology and business portfolios. My skills and experience are very diverse and I have pushed myself to develop and refine my capabilities over time by undertaking multiple positions within different state agencies. As a continual life-long learner I have worked in large, mid-sized and small agencies, which has exposed me to a variety of organizational cultures, norms and diverse perspectives. These experiences have helped me grow and mature as a leader and to appreciate the value in approaching each new career opportunity with a growth mind set and to be attentive to what the agency and employees need from me as a leader and how I may have to adapt and apply my expertise differently to best meet the agency's needs. My expertise includes developing and transforming organizations, navigating complex authorizing environments, cloud enablement, strategic planning, workforce and budget planning, procurement and contract strategy. I have many years of proven experience leading organizations through the process of implementing enterprise level technology investments and business solutions that truly extend business capabilities with measurable outcomes. I have extensive experience developing legislative funding requests, which requires a deep understanding of the legislative process, OFM and WaTech polices and the legislative gated funding process. Throughout my career, I have focused considerable attention on how to align agency transformational initiatives with organizational change management (OCM) strategies to help guide and support executive leadership and agency staff through the process of converting healthcare policies and strategic decisions into actionable work efforts that result in meaningful and sustainable technology investments. The process of implementing complex policies and strategic commitments into something that can be "operationalized" and maintained over time is challenging, yet achievable. Having a comprehensive understanding of how to lead and implement new enterprise business investments by aligning people, process and technology in a governmental environment has enabled me to fulfill this role.
