10X to 250m$: the growth I helped Prizm Payments achieve before acquisition by Hitachi. 4X: the growth I helped Hitachi Payments achieve as Intrapreneur and Head of Data Products. I am demonstrably skilled as an Intrapreneur, Data Professional and Product Designer. I value impact over status. I thrive on autonomy. I like to nurture long, meaningful relationships with the companies I work with. § Intrapreneur • I am deliberate at decision making and methodical at planning. I can usually explain the impact of changing my projects’ priorities in real time. • I am excellent at communicating with business leaders, operators and everyone in between. I tailor my content and mode for the audience. § Data Professional • I am skilled at quickly finding simple, practical solutions to business problems. I layer sophistication on top. • I believe that the stakeholder’s comprehension is crucial to a sustainable solution. I do not hide behind data or jargon. • I am a generalist: I have set up a data warehouse, authored predictive algorithms, created Business Intelligence dashboards for company-wide consumption, and performed ad hoc analyses in real-time decision-making scenarios. § Product Designer • I am attracted to fundamental, human-centered problems.
