Propeller, a management consultancy for leading organizations in technology, retail, energy and utilities, healthcare, and the public sector, today announced that Kristen Harris has joined the firm as director of its technology transformation practice. Based out of Propeller’s Denver office, Harris will lead business development, mentorship and talent development, operations, and thought leadership for the practice.

Harris joins Propeller with over 20 years of experience leading large-scale technology transformation programs at some of the country’s most sophisticated tech companies. She previously served as the director of web data engineering at Sun Microsystems and as director of application development at Oracle. Most recently, Harris was vice president of service delivery at Zia Consulting, where she drove resources, scalability, and strategy on enterprise digital transformation and process re-architecture consulting engagements.

“One of Propeller’s biggest differentiators is our ability to drive projects forward, and Kristen has the expertise and creative mindset that builds momentum and delivers impactful solutions for clients,” said Allison Torpey, Denver managing director at Propeller. “I’m thrilled to have Kristen on our team and to work alongside her in our Denver office.”

The demand for technology transformation projects has grown significantly as organizations continue to digitize their operations to reduce costs and increase efficiency, yet many struggle with these highly complex projects. Propeller’s tech transformation team works with clients to facilitate this process, focusing on developing technology strategy roadmaps, delivery methodology excellence, process optimization, and cloud transformations that are aligned with organizational business imperatives, purpose, and values.

“I’m excited to work with such talented and driven colleagues who are always looking for new ways to harness the power of technology advancements for clients,” said Harris. “I was also drawn to Propeller for its long-running recognition as a top workplace and women leaders—it’s truly a supportive and people-first environment.”
