What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that challenges me and allows for growth, ideally in a collaborative environment that values innovation and strategic thinking.

I am a Project and Program Manager with over 8 years of experience leading complex software initiatives from concept to delivery. My expertise lies in managing distributed cross-functional teams, aligning stakeholders, and ensuring projects are delivered on time and within budget. I have a strong background in business analysis and product ownership, which allows me to drive process improvements in fast-paced, Agile environments.

Throughout my career, I have successfully managed multiple software projects across international teams, optimizing requirements lifecycle and delivery frameworks. My leadership skills have enabled me to mentor teams of 10-15+ members, fostering high performance and accountability. I am passionate about bridging the gap between business goals and technical execution, ensuring that all stakeholders are engaged and informed throughout the project lifecycle.
