A FEW USEFUL ANSWERS
My work, in plain language.
What opportunities best fit your experience?
My strongest fit is senior individual contributor work in marketing operations and marketing technology governance, with adjacent opportunities in AI enablement focused on business workflows, permissions, and adoption. I prefer hands-on ownership and leading complex work across teams. I previously operated at senior manager level at Zillow Group.

What kind of governance do you work on?
My focus is marketing systems, digital assets, and data access: who owns a platform, how information is organized, who can use it, and how teams maintain it. At Zillow Group, I coordinated Databricks workspace and data-access requirements with Data Product and wrote self-service guidance for Marketing Ops.
What business problems have you helped solve?
I’ve helped teams coordinate work from brief to launch, automate repetitive campaign production, get usable marketing data sooner, and simplify connected platforms. At Zillow Group, I standardized intake and project tracking in Jira and coordinated data-access requirements. At Simpleview, I worked on shared project planning and marketing workflows.
Where can I see your public speaking and published work?
I spoke at Iterable Activate Summit 2022 about automating StreetEasy’s customer journeys with catalogs and data feeds. CoSchedule also featured my perspective as Simpleview’s Marketing Operations Manager in its customer story. The sources section links to those publications and identifies the scope of the team achievements they describe.
