Senior Project Manager at RegEd who delivered enterprise SaaS implementations and cut project initiation time by about 25%.
United StatesWhat I'm looking for
At RegEd, I led enterprise SaaS implementations of compliance and regulatory software for financial institutions, serving as the primary delivery owner across internal teams and client stakeholders. I designed project plan templates adopted across the organization, reducing project initiation time by about 25%.
At SS&C Technologies (formerly DST), I managed 120+ implementations of the Digital Investor platform, typically overseeing 9–10 concurrent projects. I delivered JP Morgan's redesigned platform 25% under budget and on schedule, and introduced JIRA-integrated reporting that reduced manual reporting time by nearly 35%.
Across my project management work, I’ve built PMO frameworks, coordinated cross-functional delivery, and mentored project managers. I’m now applying that discipline to organizations whose mission I believe in.
