Senior Scrum Master and Agile Coach at IRCC, improving Passport Modernization cycle time by 30% with AI-augmented delivery metrics.

Canada
Message

At Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada, I spearhead Agile delivery for two teams in the Passport Modernization Program. Our hybrid Scrum-Kanban approach reduced average cycle time by 30%, and I developed an AI-augmented dashboard to forecast sprint velocity and flag at-risk deliverables.

At TD Bank, via Accenture, I delivered business analysis for an enterprise AI chatbot platform using IBM Genesis/Watson Assistant. I scoped prototypes, MVPs, and proofs of concept, and coordinated Agile delivery with teams working in Waterfall.

Earlier, at Bell Canada, I worked on the CSM One Billing System marketing initiative, which reached 2 million clients and generated an additional 300,000 in free publicity within the first month of launch. I also bring deep business analysis experience and formal training in generative AI and agentic systems, including RAG, agent evaluation, and context engineering.
