What I'm looking for

I’m looking to lead delivery and program execution for AI-driven products—using PMO governance, RAID management, and AI workflow automation to boost predictability, quality, and stakeholder alignment across engineering and business teams.

I’m a delivery-focused Project & Program Manager and Product Specialist with 15+ years driving execution excellence across web, mobile, SaaS, automation, and AI-driven solutions. I align business objectives with engineering delivery—achieving 88% sprint delivery predictability, reducing production defects by ~18%, and improving team productivity by ~33% through PMO governance, RAID management, and structured SOP design.

I specialize in AI workflow automation, AI integrations, and agent-based systems, including hands-on delivery of generative AI products. From reviving stalled initiatives to building predictable release cadences and translating compliance needs into delivery rhythms, I lead cross-functional teams, vendors, and stakeholders to deliver outcomes reliably from planning through post-launch continuity.
