What I'm looking for

I seek senior Pega roles focusing on decisioning and integrations, with collaborative teams, clear processes, and opportunities to lead technical delivery.

I am a Certified Pega professional with 15+ years designing, developing, and testing enterprise Pega solutions across federal and financial services clients.

I have built integrations, data pipelines, decisioning models, and user interfaces while maintaining guardrail-compliant, secure solutions and supporting deployments across environments.

My achievements include implementing IRS tax-processing integrations, TFRP calculation systems, and extensive Pega Marketing and Decisioning projects for major banks and insurers.

I am team-oriented, an effective communicator, and comfortable in individual contributor and lead roles to deliver pragmatic, maintainable solutions.
