I thrive in fast-paced environments and am proficient in all phases of project management, utilizing Scrum methodology to drive success.

Throughout my career, I have developed a strong skill set in budget adherence, cybersecurity, application migration, and managing third-party vendors. My recent roles have involved leading complex projects, including significant migrations and integrations, where I have successfully navigated financial risks and ensured compliance with regulatory standards. I am dedicated to leveraging my experience to uncover new opportunities and drive organizational success.
