What I'm looking for

I'm looking to lead cross-functional enterprise programs where structured delivery, stakeholder alignment, data-driven decision-making, and modern delivery practices support meaningful business outcomes.

At VMware, I managed the enterprise-wide VCPP Product Usage Guide and led the VCPP Quarterly Newsletter, delivering accurate, legally compliant resources and internal updates for global sales, client, and program teams.

I've supported PMO initiatives across CIBG, VCPP, and MSP programs through structured execution, risk mitigation, stakeholder engagement, and data-driven decision-making. My work spans technical and business environments, including cloud infrastructure, research, reporting, documentation, and analytics.

I've also applied statistical analysis in Excel, R, and Stata for development-sector initiatives, and bring experience in business development, market research, community programs, and technology projects.
