What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that foster innovation and collaboration, where I can lead Agile transformations and drive product delivery in a dynamic environment.

I am an experienced Program Manager and Agile Practitioner with a proven track record in delivering digital products across various sectors, including health tech, insurance, and fintech. My expertise lies in leading cross-functional teams and facilitating Agile transformations, ensuring alignment between business goals and customer needs throughout the delivery process.

At Dacadoo, I oversee the product delivery lifecycle for a health-tech application, coordinating efforts across multiple teams to meet client expectations. My role involves continuous refinement of priorities and facilitating Scrum and Kanban events to foster an Agile environment. I am passionate about driving innovation and continuous improvement, and I thrive in diverse, collaborative settings.

Previously, I served as a Scrum Master and Agile Coach at Endava, where I embedded Agile values into the culture of cross-functional teams. My journey began as a Business Analyst at Emerson, where I developed a CRM solution to optimize sales processes. I hold a Master's Degree in Business Management and several Scrum certifications, reflecting my commitment to professional growth and excellence in Agile practices.
