What I'm looking for

I seek a senior delivery role in life sciences/pharma, leading regulated cloud/SAP implementations, driving financial discipline and continuous process improvements within collaborative, cross-functional teams.

I am a senior project manager with deep experience in pharmaceutical systems (GxP), SAP migrations, and cloud implementations. I hold PMP®, PSM I, and AWS Solutions Architect – Associate certifications and focus on delivering regulated digital solutions.

At PM Solutions I lead portfolio-level work for pharmaceutical clients, managing SAP infrastructure migrations, finance application development, SaaS onboarding, and full project financials. I coordinate cross-functional teams, prepare portfolio monthly status reports, and drive projects to completion while maintaining regulatory compliance.

Previously I managed medical device software development and GxP clinical applications at organizations including LifeScan and Merck, serving as Project Manager, Change Manager, and SDLC SME. I have led cloud migration feasibility and compliance assessments, overseen Level 2/3 support, and participated in vendor assessments and procurement.

I have authored a book, served in nonprofit leadership roles, and received recognition for client accolades and financial support efforts. I seek opportunities to lead regulated digital transformations, improve processes, and mentor teams while delivering measurable business outcomes.
