Head of Tech
As a seasoned Senior Professional in Information Technology and Data Analytics Management, I lead teams with a commitment to compassionate and authentic leadership. My journey unfolds at the intersection of technology, digital, agile, and product-led transformation. By embracing value-driven leadership I guide my teams to find purpose and work within their values, I cultivate an environment where personal and professional aspirations align.

My commitment extends beyond technology; I am passionate about sustainability and the circular economy. This passion is reflected in my academic background, where I’ve contributed to AI implementation for green and sustainable supply chain management.

Diversity Ambassador
Contributing to change and equality for women in tech, “I believe that as a compassionate leader, it’s essential to embrace and support differences between genders, rather than pressuring women to conform to traditional masculine norms.”
“No journey is easy. It’s important to embrace the experience, learn from both triumphs and challenges and maintain a positive attitude throughout. I strongly encourage people to search for their purpose and values early on in their careers. It will help you make the right decisions in life and find a job that you truly love.”
