Littleton, Colorado, United States of America

With more than two decades of experience in finance and operations, I am the Chief Financial Officer at Lumen Technologies, a global leader in integrated communications and technology solutions. I am responsible for overseeing the financial performance, capital allocation, and strategic planning of the company, as well as leading a team of talented finance professionals.

My core competencies include process improvement, income statement analysis, risk management, and shareholder value creation. I have applied these skills in various senior executive roles at innovative brands such as Pepsi, Hewlett Packard, and Arrow Electronics, where I contributed to driving growth, efficiency, and profitability. I am passionate about developing and advocating a broad vision that takes risks and learns from past experiences, and I believe in authentic leadership that understands the impact I have on others by listening, watching, reflecting, and coaching. My mission is to develop great people and build great teams that deliver exceptional results.
