For 15+ years, I've held Senior Product and Program Leadership roles globally in the tech industry with domain expertise in ESG, financial services, retail, and sustainability. 

I'm known for fearlessly taking on complex programs building them from the ground up in digital transformation, GTM, product launches, and process redesigns, and empowering cross-functional teams to deliver career-defining work. All while inspiring a team culture of hustle and joy and keeping them grooving with fresh tunes. Find me on Spotify (DJMelilax) or watch for my weekly playlist #cleardatboxx. 

As a social impact leader, I'm proud to align my career with Fortune 500 brands, including Autodesk, HP, H&M, and Morgan Stanley, that are dedicated to a triple-bottom-line strategy benefitting people, the planet, and profit. #techforgood
