What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role that fosters innovation and collaboration, with opportunities for growth.

I am a results-driven strategic leader with over 9 years of experience in project management, strategic planning, and business operations. My journey has taken me through various sectors, including consumer and health tech, where I have successfully led product development and implemented business process improvements. I am PMP certified and have a proven track record of driving change and aligning teams to achieve key business objectives.

Throughout my career, I have built scalable frameworks and optimized operational efficiencies, significantly enhancing business growth. For instance, at EMV Capital, I developed a PMO framework that increased annual raise capacity by 30% and halved the average time-to-close for funding rounds. My passion lies in fostering collaboration across cross-functional teams, ensuring that we not only meet but exceed our strategic goals.

I thrive in fast-paced environments and am deeply committed to delivering innovative solutions that drive success. My experience managing complex projects and navigating regulatory landscapes has equipped me with the skills necessary to excel in dynamic settings. I look forward to leveraging my expertise to contribute to impactful projects and drive meaningful change.
