What I'm looking for
Cultivating a distinguished career as a Product Manager for the original Microsoft Xbox release, I have since evolved into a dynamic Project Manager. My journey has taken me through pivotal roles at the University of Miami, the State of Illinois, KPMG, Washington University School of Medicine, and BJC Healthcare. I leverage these experiences to blend innovative technology management with strategic project leadership to drive transformation and efficiency in complex IT environments.
