Senior Program Manager driving global digital transformation and AI delivery.
What I'm looking for
I am a seasoned senior program manager with 15+ years delivering complex, multi-million-dollar digital transformation and CX AI programs across the US, EMEA, and APAC. I lead global, cross-functional teams and partner with C-level stakeholders to drive strategic delivery, pre-sales growth, and scalable operations.
At Afiniti I managed an $11M+ service delivery portfolio, led distributed teams of 65–70 staff, and delivered enterprise AI platform transformations with strong compliance (GDPR, PIPA, PCI-DSS). I improved onboarding, designed executive reporting, supported pricing and renewals, and enabled regional market expansions through delivery infrastructure and compliance alignment.
I thrive in fast-paced, high-growth environments, champion capability development (PMP/ITIL), and combine hands-on execution with strategic vision to safeguard client outcomes and scale global operations.
