What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can lead end-to-end implementation, improve operational workflows, coordinate cross-functional teams, and drive measurable outcomes in collaborative, impact-driven organizations.

I am an implementation and project delivery professional with 7+ years delivering complex initiatives across distributed teams and regulated environments. I manage full project lifecycles from requirements gathering and scope definition through execution, reporting, and close-out.

I specialize in business analysis, process mapping, workflow design, KPI tracking, and compliance documentation, and I act as the bridge between business stakeholders and technical implementers. I have supported programs exceeding $2M across multiple countries and improved operational workflows and reporting structures.

As a consultant and delivery lead, I have developed 30+ implementation proposals, coordinated multi-stakeholder workshops and international conferences, and increased engagement rates through targeted communication workflows. I have also produced structured documentation and financial models to guide project rollouts and supported clients in establishing fund-management and reporting systems.

I have led cross-functional teams, managed multi-country implementations, and driven measurable improvements such as a 20% workflow efficiency gain and securing $250,000+ through authored proposals. I bring a pragmatic, results-oriented approach to implementation, stakeholder coordination, and process improvement.
