Results-driven Project and Product Manager with expertise in data analytics.
What I'm looking for
I am a certified Project and Product Manager with over a decade of experience in data analytics. My career has been marked by a results-driven approach, where I excel in building relationships and translating client requests into tangible business value. I have a proven track record in both B2C and B2B client engagement, leveraging my analytical thinking and creativity to drive successful outcomes.
In my recent role as a Senior Agile Product Owner at Elevance Health, I managed stakeholder requests and prioritized backlogs to ensure that each product release delivered significant business value. I implemented agile methodologies to enhance team efficiency and led cross-functional teams in developing innovative solutions. My experience as a Technical Product Owner/Scrum Master further honed my skills in managing teams and delivering projects on time, utilizing tools like Jira and Confluence to streamline processes.
Beyond my professional expertise, I am passionate about leadership and community service, currently serving as the Vice President and Economic Development Committee Chair for Sisters United in Human Service, Inc. My commitment to driving positive change is reflected in my successful fundraising initiatives, which have raised over $30k for the organization.
