Professional Bio
I am a Parking and Transportation Manager with 26 years of progressive leadership experience across academic, not-for-profit, and private-sector environments. I provide strategic oversight for complex campus parking, transportation, and valet operations serving patients, faculty, staff, and visitors across multiple sites. My role encompasses regulatory compliance, fiscal stewardship, and long-range planning, including operating and revenue budgets for multiple cost centers. I lead large, multidisciplinary teams and foster a culture of accountability, engagement, and continuous improvement. Recognized for a collaborative and customer-focused leadership style, I partner with senior leadership, municipal agencies, and industry vendors to drive cost containment, operational efficiency, and service innovation. Key initiatives include implementing real-time shuttle technology and deploying License Plate Recognition systems to optimize parking utilization and enhance the customer experience.
