What I'm looking for

I'm looking to lead ERP, SaaS, analytics, or digital-transformation products where I can shape roadmaps, align stakeholders, improve data-driven decisions, and deliver measurable business outcomes through Agile product delivery.

At RPM International, I lead the LN Infor ERP roadmap and backlog, delivering 12 Baan IV-to-LN 7 data migrations with zero critical data loss across manufacturing and supply-chain modules.

I translate business needs into user stories, acceptance criteria, and product requirements, while running sprint planning and reviews with business, IT, and R&D stakeholders. I also helped deliver channel analytics and automated data pipelines that reduced manual reporting effort by 40%.

My experience spans ERP modernization, SaaS, analytics, e-commerce, market analysis, dashboard design, and data quality. I use SQL, Power BI, Tableau, Power Apps, Jira, and Confluence to turn data and stakeholder priorities into measurable outcomes.
