What I'm looking for

I seek a role where I can lead Agile transformation, coach teams, drive delivery for mid-to-large projects, and align stakeholders toward measurable business outcomes.

I am an Agile Project Manager and Scrum Master with multi-year experience leading end-to-end IT projects across Automotive, Corporate HR, E-commerce, and Construction domains. I have led cloud migration and spatial computing initiatives for a luxury automotive brand, coached international teams, and improved sprint goal completion from 50% to 87% while aligning 20+ stakeholders.

I specialize in structuring workflows, optimizing processes, and implementing Agile frameworks for mid-to-large projects, enabling high-performing cross-functional teams of 25+ people. I have a track record of delivering measurable business outcomes — including a 35% e-commerce revenue increase and successful presales and product-definition work — and hold certifications such as SAFe Agilist, PSPO I, and PSM I.
