What I'm looking for

I seek senior roles leading Agile and SAFe transformations where I can coach teams, scale delivery, enable AI-enabled products, and work in collaborative, data-driven organizations that value continuous improvement and measurable outcomes.

I am a seasoned Agile transformation leader and certified Scrum Master with a track record of scaling SAFe, launching ARTs, and coaching teams to measurable delivery improvements across enterprises. I design playbooks, facilitate large workshops, and align stakeholders to tighten PI planning and boost throughput.

My work spans AI enablement, cloud modernization, and delivery transformation where I drove faster feature deployment, reduced cycle times, and implemented governance for ethical AI and compliance. I combine disciplined team coaching, data-driven practices, and stakeholder leadership to create predictable, high‑velocity delivery outcomes.
