What I'm looking for

I seek senior roles leading cross-functional teams to deliver complex, multi-country banking or IT programs with strong stakeholder engagement, technical collaboration, and measurable outcomes.

I am a Senior Agile Project and Program Manager with deep technical roots in database architecture and integrations, proven across multinational banking and IT programs. I lead cross-functional teams, manage vendors and stakeholders, and deliver complex data migrations and multi-country product implementations with a strong focus on quality and reconciliation.

My career includes directing merger-related system integrations, running program management offices for parallel projects, and acting as product lead for a business process engine deployed across five countries. I hold PMP® and PSM I certifications and combine practical technical experience with Agile leadership to drive measurable outcomes and executive-level reporting.
