Operating as a Delivery Lead I balanced typical Scrum Master and Product Owner responsibilities for delivery teams. Responsibilities range from managing scrum ceremonies, budgets, and timelines to defining and breaking down epics to features to user stories ready for the team. As a Delivery Lead I was able to work closely with the client to help educate around Agile delivery practices and help our stakeholders shape the vision for their products and define the problems we were trying to solve.In my roles as a Product Strategist I unified the vision between stakeholders and product owners to create holistic, iterative product roadmaps. Partnering with external teams I lead the effort to consistently reevaluate estimations, timelines, and scope based on information uncovered during development. Balancing this against market insights, user experience, and business drivers we would measure efforts against metrics like OKRs or KPIs to ensure we were building the next best feature possible.

Managed multiple concurrent projects with responsibilities ranging from content management to agile delivery. Key successes include:• Lead an effort to streamline Asana usage for the marketing arm of a clothing company. This effort reduced confusion in collaboration, improved manager awareness of task status, and eased the efforts related to the collaboration behind product photo shoots and readiness tasks for print. • Hired as a delivery lead to coordinate efforts between a UX design firm and a development firm for a client. While employed I reduced meeting waste by right sizing attendees and setting clear objectives and agendas, increased collaboration, and introduced a Scrum of Scrum which took 10 hours of standing meetings per week down to 3.
