What I'm looking for

I seek a leadership role managing cross-functional programs that values clear communication, stakeholder partnership, security/compliance focus, and opportunities to drive measurable process and cost improvements.

I am a results-driven Project and Program Manager with over 6 years of experience leading complex BI, BSM, and community safety software initiatives using Agile methodologies. I specialize in strategic planning, budget and vendor management, FedRAMP/security program delivery, and coordinating remote, cross-functional teams to achieve milestones on time and within scope.

I have led multimillion-dollar programs (including a $5M FedRAMP certification and a $3M tech stack optimization), implemented process improvements and standardized templates, and supported digital transformation and compliance efforts. I focus on clear stakeholder communication, team development, and delivering measurable business value.
