In this role, she’ll lead Disney’s global technology, data, and digital strategy—bringing decades of digital transformation expertise to one of the world’s most iconic entertainment brands. She describes the role as “harnessing pixie dust” to turn tech into magic.

She earned her degree in Industrial Engineering from the University of Toronto, with postgraduate studies in the Netherlands at Eindhoven University of Technology.

e began her career at Procter & Gamble, spending 17 years leading IT and analytics programs across sales, supply chain, and R&D. Doniz went on to serve as Group CIO at Qantas Airways and later held senior tech roles at Aimia Inc and SAP. Most recently, she was Chief Information Officer and Senior Vice President at Boeing, where she led global efforts in IT, cybersecurity, and data strategy.

Along the way, she’s been named one of Canada’s “100 Most Powerful Women,” one of ALPFA’s “Most Powerful Latinas,” and one of the “Top 100 Executive Women in Tech to Watch in 2025.”
