My next career chapter

Finishing one momentous journey, forging another one

After 8 incredible years, I have made the difficult decision to leave my role as an Associate Director of Product Development at Verizon Global Network & Technology.

This was not an easy choice. My division, my senior director and my colleagues have been a huge part of my professional journey.

However, there was no escaping that the time is right for me to pursue new opportunities to grow my skills and make broader professional impacts.

Make no mistake, my time at Verizon has been immensely rewarding. I have had the privilege of working on digital platforms and products that have transformed lives.

From modernizing America’s most reliable network to redefining cloud backup and storage services to building innovative API-powered solutions, I have continually expanded my expertise across the software development lifecycle. The variety of projects and the freedom to ideate have been especially fulfilling.

A career defined by adaptability and acumen

From journalism to telecom, I have consistently applied knowledge and skills gained in one career path to another, all while rapidly mastering emerging technologies and new business models.

While I have many professional strengths, one of the greatest is my ability to translate complex technical initiatives into world-class user experiences that solve real-world problems through enhanced product and tooling capabilities.

But don't just take my word for it. I invite you to browse the accounts and data contained within these pages. They provide tangible evidence of when and how my blend of technical depth and breadth — coupled with my strategic and creative mindset — made me a valuable asset to past employers.

Embracing what’s next

While I am truly sad to depart Verizon, I could not be more excited about the opportunities that lie ahead.

I look forward to forging a new career chapter in which I can contribute my expertise and skills to shape the future of emerging digital solutions and services for consumers and enterprises alike.

My goal is to join a collaborative, fast-paced team tackling complex challenges with creativity and ingenuity. I thrive when and where I can catalyze new ideas, foster team growth, and contribute to a company’s success and industry position.

I am open to diverse business landscapes and committed to finding a role that will allow me to make a lasting impact in areas such as agile development, product strategy, data analytics, business operations and growth marketing.

I am confident that I will continue to grow as a digital product leader, driving transformative change within organizations building next-generation technologies.

On the way out, I am grateful for my time at Verizon and all that I have learned and achieved. Here’s to the next stage of my career, and making a lasting impact once more!
