What I'm looking for

I seek a role that fosters collaboration, innovation, and continuous learning.

I am a Certified Scrum Master with extensive experience in facilitating Scrum ceremonies and removing impediments for global teams. Currently, I work at ExxonMobil, where I support Product Owners in refining and prioritizing backlogs to ensure alignment with Agile delivery. My role involves promoting an agile mindset through training and coaching, adapting practices to fit the team context, and fostering a culture of continuous feedback and iterative improvement.

Throughout my career, I have successfully led Agile transformations in dysfunctional teams, driving performance and continuous improvement through clear communication and collaboration. I engage in Communities of Practice to share knowledge and align cross-functional business objectives. My commitment to cultivating a transparent, secure, and respectful remote working environment has been pivotal in enhancing team dynamics and productivity.
