What I'm looking for

I’m seeking a dynamic role where I can lead impactful projects, collaborate with cross-functional teams, and drive product or service delivery from concept to completion—while continuously growing as a strategic project leader.

I'm a certified Project Manager (PMP, Scrum) with a foundation in Computer Science and hands-on experience across industries like SaaS, fintech, healthtech, and digital services. My approach blends strategic thinking with a bias for action — from setting up roadmaps and managing sprints to reporting KPIs and solving blockers. I've worked with cross-functional teams across the US, Europe, and Africa, aligning tech efforts with business goals. When I’m not leading projects, I’m refining systems, mentoring new PMs, or exploring how AI can improve project delivery.
