What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that foster Agile methodologies and promote continuous improvement in a collaborative environment.

I am a Certified Scrum Master (PSM III) and Product Owner (PSPO II) with over two years of experience leading Agile teams in digital transformation projects within the fintech and government sectors. My leadership in GovTech and banking has resulted in significant improvements in delivery speed and Agile maturity, showcasing my ability to foster high-performing Scrum environments.

As an Agile Transformation Leader, I have successfully transitioned multiple high-impact national projects to Agile frameworks, increasing delivery speed by 28%. My expertise in facilitating Agile adoption workshops has positively influenced over 60 team members across various departments, optimizing collaboration and reducing cycle times. I am currently pursuing a PhD in Project and Process Management, which complements my hands-on leadership experience and commitment to continuous improvement.
