I'm a seasoned software engineering leader who specializes in turning around broken development processes and building high-performing teams that deliver under pressure. At Ally Financial, I transformed a demoralized 7-person team operating at 200% capacity into a 20+ person powerhouse that reduced defects by 500% and became the talent pipeline for new product teams. When I led Disney's FastPass+ rebuild from server-rendered pages to a cutting-edge AngularJS application, the transformation was so successful that Magic Kingdom increased its customer satisfaction threshold from 40,000 to 60,000 daily guests while boosting dining revenue.
My technical expertise spans full-stack development with modern technologies including React, Node.js, PHP, and mobile platforms, but my real strength is delivering critical projects when the stakes are highest. At Cars.com, I orchestrated an $8 million Chase Bank partnership, achieving >99% lead deliverability despite constantly shifting requirements and API documentation that didn't match production hours before go-live. Whether it's navigating complex technical transitions, managing underperforming developers through crisis moments, or building collaboration between technology and business partners, I consistently deliver results that exceed expectations while building the teams and culture needed for long-term success.More...
