Chief Information Officer | Fractional CIO | Enterprise Architecture, AI & Digital Transformation

About Me

I am a Chief Information Officer and enterprise technology leader with 20+ years of experience leading large-scale digital transformation, enterprise architecture, and platform modernization initiatives across financial services, media, consulting, and regulated industries. In my full-time executive roles including Chief Architect and CIO-level leadership positions at organizations such as New York Life, Vimeo, and EY. I have partnered directly with CEOs, COO, CFO, CIOs, CTOs, CISOs, and boards to translate business strategy into scalable, secure, and high-performing technology platforms. My work has included building enterprise architecture functions, leading cloud and platform transformations, standing up AI and proof-of-concept labs, modernizing legacy systems, and strengthening cybersecurity and governance across complex enterprises. While my background was built in full-time executive leadership roles, the nature of my work has consistently mirrored a fractional CIO model: advising senior leadership, shaping IT and digital strategy, evaluating technology investments, guiding operating models, and driving execution across cross-functional teams without owning every operational detail day-to-day. As a Fractional CIO, I bring: Enterprise-grade technology strategy tailored to growth-stage and mid-market companies Strong alignment between business outcomes, architecture, and execution Hands-on experience with cloud platforms, data, AI, cybersecurity, and IT operations A pragmatic, operator mindset focused on ROI, risk management, and scalability I work best with founders, CEOs, and executive teams who need seasoned technology leadership to modernize platforms, de-risk growth, guide digital initiatives, or prepare for scale, M&A, or regulatory scrutiny—without the overhead of a full-time CIO.
