10 years ago, if you told me I’d become a startup CEO, I wouldn’t have believed you. I have a degree in English Literature. I wrote a 400-page novel and never published it. I've been accused of being an "alt CEO." These days, all of that feels like an advantage as our team at Tropic builds the future of software procurement.
Long before Tropic became real, my co-founder Justin and I discovered something the hard way: The whole world runs on software, yet everyone struggles to buy it. So we set out to fix that. Today, companies of all sizes—from startups to Fortune 500s—use Tropic to buy software, manage contracts, monitor usage and turn procurement into a competitive advantage.
I am committed to building the reputation and value of procurement in the Tech sector. I launched a respected procurement organization at Qualtrics by leveraging my global procurement experience from different industries. I’m committed to hiring great leaders. I collaborate with business partners to source and deliver innovative solutions that creatively solve business problems, mitigate risk, improve supplier performance, and make significant contributions to the financial health and performance of the company.
