Revance Therapeutics / Revance Aesthetics
Director of Web Technology
Led web technology across a healthcare and life-sciences organization supporting 32 websites and 2M+ users — strategy, architecture, engineering, security, and delivery.
- Reduced infrastructure and development costs by 82% through modernization, platform consolidation, and simpler architecture.
- Migrated and modernized 18 applications and 22 codebases onto a lean platform (Vercel, React, TypeScript, Node.js).
- Led UX and design-system work so a small team could support a large digital portfolio.
- Established a scalable design-system architecture connecting Figma design tokens to the codebase, with layered enterprise standards cascading into product and brand styles.
- Reduced development time by ~70% by embedding AI into how the team designs, builds, and ships — not as a product feature.
- Standardized architecture, reusable components, and AI-assisted workflows so a small engineering team could deliver with more leverage.
- Connected consumer applications to enterprise systems of record across Salesforce, Snowflake, Informatica, and related platforms.
- Designed data and application architecture that kept enterprise complexity behind simple user experiences.
- Led internal and external engineering teams of up to 35 and managed a $2M technology and vendor budget.
- Set architecture, delivery, and security standards across distributed partners, and served as the bridge between executives, product, and engineering.
- Led pen-testing initiatives on assessments across applications, APIs, infrastructure, and third-party integrations.
- Prioritized remediation by business risk and moved sensitive applications onto a more controlled architecture.
- Used findings to drive modernization and set SOC 2 Type 2-aligned security architecture for new systems.

Leadership &
Technology Philosophy
Make complex things simple
The through-line of my career is removing unnecessary complexity — from early frameworks to enterprise modernization and AI-enabled engineering. Give people powerful technology without making them deal with its complexity.
Build AI leverage
The best technology organizations are not necessarily the largest. They are the organizations that create the most leverage through architecture, automation, reusable systems, strong engineering practices, and AI.
Stay close to the technology
Comfortable moving between executive strategy and implementation — roadmaps and budgets on one side, architecture and code on the other.
