My mission is to simplify how banks and fintechs collaborate. I focus on creating scalable, compliant, and customer-centric solutions that deliver real results — from sponsor-bank programs to embedded finance products that redefine digital banking.
Over the years, I’ve led partnerships and product initiatives across core banking, payments modernization, and embedded finance. My experience spans working with leading institutions to design go-to-market strategies, operational frameworks, and scalable partnership ecosystems.
Based in Florida, I’m passionate about mentoring emerging fintech professionals, empowering diverse voices in finance, and exploring innovation through travel and community. I believe in leading with authenticity, collaboration, and continuous learning.
