What I'm looking for

I’m looking to lead people-first Digital Workplace transformations—advising senior leaders, executing Agile roadmaps, and applying OCM and workforce strategy to deliver stable operations today and future-ready consultancy tomorrow.

I’m a People-First strategist and OCM expert with 20+ years of experience (14+ in Pharma), specializing in large-scale organizational transformations for mission-critical Digital Workplace ecosystems.

In my current role, I provide strategic advisory to business leadership for a global 300+ employee department while leading a distributed team of Subject Matter Experts—translating vision into execution through roadmaps, global governance, and stakeholder partnerships.

I’ve modernized client device and workplace platforms by shifting teams to Agile operating models, building Zero-Touch user experiences, and strengthening global operational stability—while evolving delivery into a Managed Service Provider model and developing talent through structured upskilling, coaching, and mentoring programs.
