Chief People Officer
New York, United States
Transformational, award-wining, C-level executive with a strong track record in high-growth, category-defining technology and professional services companies.
Currently the Chief People Officer (CPO) at Octus, the leading global credit intelligence and data provider, stewarding the people strategy through our most consequential period of innovation, growth, and scale.
My leadership experience spans both general management and HR, which means I approach people leadership with a business operator's mindset.
The philosophy that drives my work is simple: the best outcomes for a business and the best outcomes for its people are usually the same. Employer and employee interests are not in tension. Finding where they align is the job, and everything else follows from that.
My professional "sweet spot" is scaling growth-stage category creators through rapid expansion, acquisition, and exit. I've contributed to multiple buy- and sell-side transactions totaling $ billions, and I know what it takes to build organizations that perform — and hold together — under that kind of pace and pressure.
