Throughout my career, I have successfully facilitated organizational change by introducing Lean and Agile practices tailored to cloud-native environments. I have led cross-functional teams in designing technical solutions that balance operational efficiency, scalability, and resilience. Before joining Red Hat, I held various leadership roles at OCTO Technology, where I advanced Agile and DevOps adoption within large-scale programs. My deep understanding of value streams and team topologies enables me to align technical and organizational strategies, driving sustainable success in the digital age.

As a Global Solution Architect, I serve as the lead technical orchestrator for the partnership between Red Hat and our customers. In this role, customer success and the effective adoption of products and cloud services within the ecosystem are essential to achieving positive business outcomes for all parties involved.

Team Topologies is an integral part of my approach, supporting and guiding many of the conversations I have, specifically regarding the people and process aspects of the organizational operating system. This advocacy enables me to drive meaningful change and empower teams to perform at their best.
