What I'm looking for

I’m seeking a senior program leadership role where I can build governance, surface risks early, and drive agile cross-team delivery without formal authority—partnering with executives to deliver measurable outcomes in regulated environments.

I’m a senior program manager with deep experience leading multiple concurrent cross-functional programs in complex, matrixed environments. I translate high-level organizational goals into coordinated roadmaps, governance models, and measurable outcomes—building the structure and accountability mechanisms that keep large portfolios on track.

In agile delivery contexts, I surface risks early, drive alignment across diverse stakeholders without formal authority, and shape the operating model as the work evolves. From Kroger Technology & Digital to citywide procurement leadership, I’ve coached teams, improved planning predictability, and partnered across engineering, platform, data, and integration stakeholders—especially in regulated health and compliance-heavy environments—so delivery stays transparent, sequenced, and outcome-focused.
