Summary

Senior Technical Project Manager and entrepreneurial leader with a versatile background in technology, operations, and product development. Proven history of driving efficiency and strategic change.

I leverage a unique blend of technical process expertise (Web Dev, CI/CD, AI Integration) and high-stakes operational accountability (Supply Chain, Founder experience) to deliver complex programs and bridge the gap between technical teams and executive business goals.

Open to opportunities where I can drive large-scale technical projects, lead high-performing teams, and apply systems thinking to deliver measurable business outcomes.
