What I'm looking for

I'm open to relocation and remote opportunities.

At Woodlaine Digital Solutions, I own product and delivery end to end across a multi-client portfolio, sustaining a 90%+ on-time deployment rate. I introduced delivery frameworks and automated velocity reporting to give teams a measurable commitment-versus-delivery baseline.

At Amdocs, I led release management for Vodafone Italy’s full transformation programme, coordinating release managers and PMOs across four countries. I also oversaw Vodafone Italy production activities and matrix-managed teams of 100+, cutting incident resolution time by 25% and project cycle times by 20%.
