Building organizations that execute, learn, and adapt

I started my career as an engineer, trained to solve problems using models and data. As a consultant, I spent nearly a decade leading engagements focused on improving performance by redesigning operations, retooling systems, and partnering with executives to deliver transformative change. Along the way, I built new capabilities, led teams, and learned to move between the boardroom and the front line to solve challenges that emerge as organizations grow and scale.

But, over time, I kept running into the same problem. The strategy was sound. The excitement was real. But implementation fell flat. Results didn't follow. I wanted to understand why some organizations consistently struggle to realize their vision for the future while others routinely succeed. At Harvard, I answered that question through research on how teams perform under pressure, exploring the human and organizational dynamics that shape how we execute, learn, and adapt.

Now, I'm looking to bring this combination of operational and organizational expertise back into industry — where I can build and scale new functions, work closely with leaders on high-priority initiatives, and be held accountable for results. I'm interested in leadership roles focused on operations and strategy, organizational effectiveness, transformation, and innovation.
