What I'm looking for

I seek project or operations roles where I can lead cross-functional teams, drive process improvements, and deliver measurable operational and commercial results while continuing professional development.

I am a highly motivated project management professional with 7+ years leading operations and cross-functional teams in fast-paced retail environments.

I have a proven track record of planning, executing, and delivering complex projects on time and within scope, including store rebuilds, relaunches, and promotional campaign execution.

My strengths include workflow optimization, resource allocation, risk management, KPI-driven performance improvement, and using data to inform merchandising and operational decisions that drove measurable sales and process gains.

I am certified in multiple project management and analytics programs, continually pursuing CAPM, and I focus on scalable solutions, process automation, stakeholder collaboration, and continuous improvement.
