Diplomatic, tenacious Tech Proj. Mgr. & PMO Owner. I use my 20+ years of experience influencing teams, managing projects, and up-leveling people to transform how companies and project teams operate. These Ways of Working are culturally sensitive, metrics-driven, efficient, delivery-oriented, and support individuals’ success. As a result, I am the person you come to when you want to know what’s going on and the one you go to to get things done. With over 20 years of experience in fast-paced, multi-disciplinary environments, I seamlessly blend my innate curiosity, strong organizational skills, bias for action, and extroverted nature with the patience and humility cultivated over time. This combination empowers me to identify key problems, inspire and motivate teams, and effectively communicate vision and details with both executives and ICs. Extensive background managing both tech and non-tech projects in fast-paced, ambiguous, delivery-oriented environments. Committed to equipping peers, stakeholders, and directs for success through actionable insights, reliable processes, and transparent communication. ✅ PHILOSOPHY ★ Say what you do; Do what you say: Clearly communicating expectations and defining a standard development cadence surfaces misalignments and fosters continuous improvement. ★ People, Process, Tools: Starting with a deep understanding of individuals’ capabilities and responsibilities leads to the best process and tool development. ✅ PEOPLE LEADERSHIP ★ Managing Individual Contributors: Identifying IC capabilities and interests, aligning those to business needs, and nurturing continued growth. ★ Influencing stakeholders: Leveraging relationships to identify expectations and addressing those within our Ways of Working to establish trust; proactively communicating issues to retain that trust. ★ Evolving team culture: Accelerating delivery by clearly defining roles and responsibilities and by aligning on the way we discuss our work. ✅ PROCESS DEVELOPMENT ★ People-centric: Documenting standard operating procedures and relating them back to people's roles and responsibilities. ★ Efficient: Reducing the amount of waste and manual work by ensuring processes are simple, repeatable, and drive value. ✅ TOOL CREATION ★ Support Collaboration: Fostering collaboration and good communication by creating sources of truth, documenting decisions, and tracking work in progress. ★ Simple & Flexible: Creating ‘good enough’ tools that can be quickly deployed and evolved as we learn more.
