My Professional Journey

I am grateful to have the opportunity to serve as the Chief Technical & Compliance Officer for Excel Education Systems. I began with Excel overseeing their post-secondary operations and then moved into the Chief Strategy Officer and Chief Operating Officer roles before my current role. Throughout my career, I have had the privilege of gaining insights into the educational journey, particularly for students seeking alternative and innovative learning options. My professional background in education encompasses various domains, such as admissions, marketing, academic delivery, student services, and technology, which have collectively contributed to my understanding of the student experience.

Known for translating complex technical and compliance concepts into clear, actionable guidance, I serve as a trusted advisor to executive leadership on system strategy, risk, and organizational scalability. I bring a collaborative, student-centered mindset and a belief that well-designed systems don’t just reduce risk—they unlock better outcomes.

I am not someone who enjoys being bored! I have worked as a technical advisor with an international organization, providing professional development to educators across the globe. I thrive in helping to develop others and enjoy providing leadership development and career advice. I have also had the privilege of teaching others in the classroom at the post-secondary level.
