Project manager driving lean, Six Sigma and Agile improvements to deliver results.
What I'm looking for
I’m a results-oriented Project Manager and Lean Six Sigma Black Belt who integrates Lean Six Sigma with Agile methodologies to improve productivity, quality, and operational efficiency. I lead cross-functional teams and build strong stakeholder relationships to deliver high-impact projects on time and within budget.
More recently, I served as an Operations Manager at Amazon, leading and mentoring a flexible workforce of 700+ employees. I launched an Amazon Robotics facility, drove continuous improvement using Lean Six Sigma to address root causes, and supported ISO compliance—achieving a 34% reduction in workplace injuries.
Earlier in my career, I strengthened quality systems and execution through ISO 9001 and 13485 work, including leading audits at VarioSystems where I resolved 25 findings down to 1 minor issue and 4 recommendations. I also managed subcontracted and freelance project work, including RFP responses generating over $800K in additional revenue, and I bring disciplined risk, scope, and timeline management to every engagement.
