What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that challenges my project management skills while allowing me to contribute to a secure and compliant technology environment.

I am a dedicated Technical Project Manager with over six years of experience in managing technical infrastructure projects and ensuring compliance with regulatory standards. My role at UBA Group has allowed me to lead projects from inception to completion, focusing on delivering results on time and within budget. I have successfully implemented process improvements, including CMMI Development and various ISO standards compliance projects, while also conducting risk assessments and developing mitigation strategies.

My previous experience as a Branch Operations Manager has honed my skills in customer service and team leadership, where I prioritized operational efficiency and staff development. I believe in fostering a collaborative environment that drives business growth and enhances customer satisfaction. My academic background in Civil Engineering and Electrical Engineering complements my technical expertise, enabling me to approach projects with a comprehensive understanding of both technology and operational needs.
