What I'm looking for

I have over 25 years experience in IT Project Management field. I am currenlty looking for either part time or full-time work as a Project Manager, but I am open to new areas within IT area: Customer Support, QA, Salesforce Admin, JIRA admin, Project Co Ordinator or Data Analysis. I have worked and managed people in these roles during my career and can bring a wealth of knowledge to the table.

After retiring in 2019 and relocating to Costa Rica, I am now eager to rejoin the workforce, bringing with me a wealth of experience. As a University of Georgia graduate and avid Bulldogs fan, I bring a passion for excellence and a strong sense of community to all aspects of my life. Professionally, I offer a wealth of experience and a proven track record in project management using diverse technologies. With expertise in both Waterfall and Agile methodologies, I possess the skills necessary to navigate complex project requirements and deliver exceptional results. Outside of work, I maintain a balanced lifestyle through regular yoga practice and weekly golf outings, cherishing time spent with my family—a loving husband, two grown children, and our cherished rescue dog. My commitment to giving back is evident through my involvement in Habitat for Humanity builds and sponsorship of a breast cancer golf tournament, reflecting my dedication to making a positive impact in both my professional and personal spheres. I will bring a passion for excellence, and a commitment to making a positive impact in any role I undertake.
