I know firsthand what it means to lead through uncertainty and drive meaningful change. Arriving in the U.S. at 14, I embraced resilience and adaptability, transforming my family’s story by earning a BA in Computer Science and Economics.
Starting with my career, Technology career as a programmer at a Fortune 500 company was a dream come true.
But I didn’t stop there. Balancing a full-time job with graduate studies, I earned an MBA in Management, an MS in Computer Science, and a Ph.D. in Information Systems. Over 26 years, I built a successful leadership career, including director roles reporting to the Chief Information Officer at an asset management firm, where my focus was always on people.
