What I'm looking for

I seek roles leading Agile transformations in customer-centric, cloud-enabled organizations where I can scale Agile practices, mentor teams, and deliver measurable delivery and quality improvements.

I am an Agile Coach, Scrum Master and IT Project Manager with 12+ years in financial services and technology, specializing in Agile adoption across banking and enterprise environments. I blend hands-on Scrum, SAFe, Kanban, and Lean coaching with practical delivery experience.

I have led transformations that achieved measurable outcomes — for example, 25% faster delivery and 30% quality gains, and improvements in team velocity within three sprints through tailored coaching and Agile Centers of Excellence.

As a founder and principal consultant I deliver IT project management, cloud & DevOps strategies (AWS, Azure, GCP), and value-stream optimization, leading initiatives such as OCR Scan ID automation, PIX payment integration, iDEAL upgrades, and an Architecture Catalogue for microservices.

I focus on mentorship, building cross-functional high-performance teams, establishing COEs, and improving governance and processes using Lean, Six Sigma, and Agile best practices to drive predictable delivery, higher quality, and stakeholder alignment.
