I manage the product portfolio related to asset backed lending, client data, and consignments within the Sotheby's ecosystem. 1) Sotheby's Financial Service - SFS is an asset backed lender focusing on art and collectable assets. I lead and implemented an underwriting & servicing platform change and helped the business build an authoritative system of record. 2) Valuations platform - The valuations platform is central to the core Sotheby's business. We value billions of dollars of items every week. My role is to build the next generation valuations system and re-platform the business. This both increases our consignment rate as well as reduces our operational costs. 3) Asset pricing and routing - I manage the asset pricing and routing tool for the business. This is a rapidly growing and valuable source of consignments within the the Southey's ecosystem. This has delivered millions of dollars in new new consignments. 4) Partnerships & Affiliate programs - I am working on expanding both our strategic and technical relationships with other luxury vendors. 5) Client Relationships & CRM - My platform manages the entire client lifecycle from accumulation to liquidation. For the business, this provides a 360 view of the collector and for internal developers, this provides a central source for client data from a single API. 6) Payments infrastructure for retail locations 7) Consignment pipeline for sourcing business from both new and existing clients.
