Message

At Innovus Labs, I coordinated engineering teams, product designers, and client stakeholders across a portfolio of SaaS and custom software initiatives. I managed delivery from discovery through deployment for international B2B clients.

I introduced GitHub Projects, Jira, and Zoho One to streamline workflows and reporting, reducing reporting time by 40%. I also partnered with engineering, QA, and DevOps teams on process improvements that led to 20% faster deployment cycles.

At Generation, I managed technical education programs across Colombia and Mexico, including Generation's first multinational technical training initiative. I partnered with Unity Technologies on bootcamp curriculum and built assessment frameworks that contributed to 290+ graduate placements.

At Finalsite, I established an adoption governance model for the company's AI adoption and implementation program and aligned departmental workflows. I also defined program metrics and managed vendor selection, including RFPs and cost-benefit analyses.
