“Out of more than 100,000 UOP graduates, I’ve been selected to join the inaugural class of 76 Alumni Luminaries—an award recognizing graduates who exemplify leadership, impact, and excellence in their fields.

As President of Birchtree Global and Birchtree Performance HR, I’ve dedicated my career to helping companies expand across borders and transform HR into a driver of EBITDA and valuation. This recognition reflects not just my work, but the impact of strategic, data-driven leadership in global business and human capital.

I earned my Doctor of Business Administration in 2017 at UOP, completing one of the first multi-country, in-depth studies on foreign direct investment in Cuba. It’s been a privilege to contribute to the global business and HR community through both executive leadership and board service. I particularly enjoy sharing these financial and HR perspectives with my students at Columbia, Manhattanville, Stony Brook, and Fairfield Universities.

Thank you to the University of Phoenix for this incredible honor—and to the colleagues and clients who inspire my work every day.”
