Product Manager - Technical at T-Mobile who led the shift to Agile and accelerated accounting product delivery.

United States
Message

At T-Mobile, I drive product strategy and delivery for accounting solutions that support the company’s accounting sub-ledger. I own the technical product roadmap, from needs assessments and requirements through testing, deployment, and post-implementation support.

I led the transition to Agile development, added controls, and removed unnecessary processes, accelerating the product lifecycle and significantly reducing errors.

Earlier at Corbis, I led the design and optimization of financial processes and controls for a new in-house royalty system, supporting the processing and validation of $12M in annual royalties.

My background spans product work and finance and accounting, including royalty processes at Rhapsody International and enterprise accounting activities at Wireless Advocates. I bring those perspectives to product roadmaps, requirements, and cross-functional delivery.
