What I'm looking for

I seek senior roles leading cloud/infrastructure and digital transformation programs where I can build PMO capabilities, drive data-driven decisions, mentor teams, and deliver secure, compliant enterprise solutions.

I am a PMP-certified Senior IT Technical and Digital Transformational Project Manager with 33+ years of hands-on experience delivering enterprise infrastructure, cloud, ERP and digital transformation initiatives across global organizations.

I blend technical strategy and business acumen to translate complex requirements into actionable plans, leading cross-functional teams through M&A integrations, data center migrations, ERP moves and security/compliance programs.

My achievements include modernizing legacy environments to GCP/Azure, migrating hundreds of servers and terabytes of data with zero loss, rebuilding scalable PMOs and delivering enterprise Power BI dashboards and automation tools that improved reporting and intake processes.

I lead as a servant leader focused on aligning people, process and technology to drive innovation, operational excellence and measurable business value while mentoring teams and ensuring governance, compliance and stakeholder alignment.
