When working on cutting-edge products, many people are inspired by the technology itself and it's capability. I derive my inspiration from the impact technology can have on the real world and on peoples' every-day lives. I can pride myself on the fact that I have been surrounded by intelligent people who also share a vision of creating technology for the betterment of society, and am thrilled to have worked on some of the newest technologies on the market. As time goes on, I continue to be inspired by both past and present projects, with ever-growing optimistic anticipation of what the future may hold.
I love diving into complex challenges and finding ways to turn them into streamlined solutions that truly benefit my clients. Currently at Smartsheet as a Solutions Consultant, I lead implementations across various industries — each project is a new adventure where I get to apply my passion for technology and strategic planning. My journey began with a BBA in Management Information Systems from the University of Georgia followed by an MBA from the University of Iowa. These experiences laid the foundation for my career in tech.
At Smartsheet, I've had the opportunity to work closely with over 20 clients, helping them optimize their software usage which resulted in an impressive average annual revenue increase of $50K per account. It's incredibly rewarding to see how these improvements can transform businesses and drive success. Before this role, I designed cloud-based solutions at DropStream for more than 15 client projects — each one tailored to meet specific needs while modernizing operational efficiency.
My earlier experiences have also shaped my approach today. At Oversight, I deployed tailored configurations using Oracle SQL that improved financial report readability and boosted error detection by over 50%. Each role has taught me something valuable about client relationships and technical implementation — skills I carry forward into every new challenge.
Outside of work, I enjoy engaging with technology through various personal projects and volunteering opportunities. My time at Augusta National Golf Club taught me the importance of customer service and attention to detail — skills that are just as crucial in tech.
If you're looking for someone who can turn data into actionable insights or help navigate complex software deployments, feel free to reach out! I'm always excited to connect with others who share a passion for technology.
