What I'm looking for

I am seeking a senior project management role in a collaborative, safety-focused organization where I can lead cross-functional teams, manage complex logistics and procurement, mentor staff, and drive measurable cost and schedule improvements.

I am a results-oriented project manager with two decades of experience delivering complex infrastructure and industrial projects on scope, schedule, and budget. I combine logistics and procurement expertise with hands-on supply chain leadership to optimize costs, reduce lead times, and ensure regulatory and customs compliance.

I hold professional development credentials including the Google Project Management certificate, Microsoft Project fundamentals, and membership in PMI, and I routinely use Microsoft Project, JIRA, and Trello to drive project controls. I seek roles where I can lead cross-functional teams, mentor staff, and apply rigorous planning and stakeholder engagement to deliver measurable results.
