- Led cross-functional programs with physical or infrastructure components — data centers, hardware, energy, or telecom — and produced executive-, board-, and investor-level materials that leadership made decisions on
- Experience with data center or power market analysis — site selection, interconnection, or energy procurement
- Experience in a company that scaled rapidly under private equity or strategic sponsorship
- Background at a top-tier strategy consulting firm, private equity, or investment banking followed by an operating role
