Driving Innovation in Real-Time, ACH, and Card Payment Solutions

With decades of experience in payments, merchant acquiring, and SaaS-based financial technology, I specialize in building and scaling solutions that drive efficiency, security, and innovation. My expertise spans real-time payments (RTP), ACH, and card processing, with a focus on creating seamless, technology-driven payment experiences. I thrive at the intersection of business development, product strategy, and technology—leading teams to develop and implement cutting-edge payment solutions that optimize speed, compliance, and user experience. Whether it’s launching new platforms, enhancing integrations, or driving adoption of next-generation payment technologies, my approach is strategic, data-driven, and focused on delivering measurable impact.
