Founder, Spanwise Consulting, LLC

Executive Consultant & Transformation Strategist

Partnering with leaders to reduce risk and bring clarity to complexity.

Spanwise Consulting empowers leaders and teams to deliver with structure, insight, and impact.

I founded Spanwise Consulting to bring clarity and assurance to organizations navigating complex IT and operational transformations. Leaders deserve structured insight, disciplined governance, and a partner who reframes challenges into actionable solutions.

My advisory work is anchored in three core areas:

Delivery Strategy

Strengthening how work gets done — from portfolio alignment to program structure to the day‑to‑day rhythms that keep teams moving with purpose. I’ve led delivery strategy efforts across industries, including stabilizing a high‑visibility $30M SAP rollout and guiding a global SAP deployment across 12 countries.

Transformation Readiness

Some initiatives require an experienced partner who can quickly assess what’s happening, identify what matters most, and guide leaders toward the right next steps. I provide rapid evaluation, actionable recommendations, and light oversight for sensitive or high‑stakes efforts — the kinds of projects where clarity, discretion, and seasoned judgment make all the difference.

Executive Advisory

Providing calm, seasoned guidance to executives navigating complex decisions. My background — including serving as a Managing Director at EY — allows me to support leaders as they balance competing priorities, assess tradeoffs, and steer initiatives toward measurable impact.

Across all three areas, my approach blends strategic rigor with emotional intelligence. Leaders gain clarity, teams feel supported, and organizations move forward with confidence. Spanwise exists to offer the kind of steady, high‑impact advisory support that brings structure and momentum when it matters most.
