Solutioning & Partnership Development:

• Work closely with partners to understand customer needs, business models, customer journeys and growth objectives.
• Translate strategic opportunities into scalable payment, commerce and stablecoin-enabled solutions leveraging Visa's capabilities.
• Act as a solution integrator by bringing together internal products, services and partners to address client needs across traditional and emerging payment ecosystems.
• Advise internal stakeholders on emerging fintech, stablecoin, tokenization and digital asset trends, technologies and ecosystem developments.

Commercialization & Deal Execution:

• Lead complex partnership opportunities from origination through negotiation, contracting, launch and revenue realization, including stablecoin and digital asset-related initiatives.
• Build business cases, commercial models and partnership strategies that drive measurable business outcomes and accelerate adoption of new payment technologies.
• Manage a portfolio of fintech, stablecoin and digital asset relationships to deliver commercial growth and revenue objectives.
• Drive adoption of Visa products and services through partner channels and ecosystem distribution models, including stablecoin-enabled and tokenized payment use cases.
