I joined TIAA (The Teachers Insurance and Annuity Association) in July 2015. Prior to TIAA, I was with Santander Bank for 15 months and Citizens Bank for 4 years. In my current role with TIAA, I am a Digital Product Manager supporting the online customer experience for TIAA’s digital bank: TIAA Trust Company, FSB. As the Digital Product Manager for the bank, I am responsible for maintaining the online customer experience on a day-to-day basis as well as setting its strategy over a multi-year period. You can see some of what I do on Tiaa.
I was previously with Fidelity Investments for 12 years in various roles including product and marketing management as well as finance and operations. I also had a brief stint with Deutsche Bank – Scudder Investments in their mutual fund operations department.
I completed my MBA from Clark University (Worcester, MA) in 2000.
My mathematics education from Saint Michael’s has been very important throughout my career. Overall, I have a much stronger and more comfortable understanding of numbers, in general, than most. This has lent itself to a strong acumen to both the overall financial health of my employers as well as understanding the financial costs and benefits of the business decisions I make each and every day. While I may not assemble the financial statements, I know and appreciate how my decisions will affect them and can make decisions using them as key input.
You can visit my LinkedIn profile page and see my full career path. I would highly recommend that recent or soon to be graduates start to build their profile page and “get connected” to the Saint Michael’s Alumni LinkedIn group. It’s a great way to network with alumni in their professions.
