What I'm looking for

I seek senior or managerial roles leading PMO, project delivery, or operational risk teams where I can drive process improvements, mentor teams, and deliver measurable efficiency and compliance gains.

I am a seasoned project and operational risk manager with extensive experience leading cross-functional initiatives across banking and corporate sectors in the Dominican Republic and the Caribbean.

I have a proven track record of improving project monitoring and delivery—implementing a PMO methodology that improved reporting accuracy by 30% and achieving 100% compliance in budget and time for execution programs.

My background includes operational risk model implementation, third-party risk reduction, business continuity leadership, and continuous improvement projects that have reduced errors and increased efficiency by double-digit percentages.

I am PMP-certified, bilingual in Spanish and English, and recognized for influencing stakeholders, developing teams, and delivering measurable business outcomes that support growth and resilience.
