As General Manager in Honeywell's aftermarket services business, I lead global teams, consult executive leadership on margin strategy, and drive transformation across people, processes, and technology. I have built a reputation for strong results and collaborative culture with clients including Bechtel, GE, Georgia-Pacific, and Chevron.
