Over 15 years of experience in roles relating to Business Analyst, Project Manager Analyst, Project Manager, ScrumMaster, Release Management, SQL Developer, Report Developer, Web Development, and more! I have had the opportunity to work within a variety of industries – Financial Services (LaSalle Bank, Bank of America, and Harland Clarke Holdings), Apparel Manufacturing and Distribution, e-Commerce/Marketplaces (Amazon, Staples, and Walmart), Healthcare, and Entertainment! I’m able to communicate effectively and efficiently to cross-functional teams, including C-level management.With an extensive background in agile, project management (MBA with emphasis in Project Management as well as a Graduate Certificate in Project Management), and IT (B.S. in Business Administration with a Concentration in CIS), I can communicate to teams on both the business and IT side of the house. This allows me to quickly address questions, access risk, and determine potential mitigation strategies. Familiar with Lean and Six Sigma.Throughout the course of my career, I’ve had the opportunity to lead large and complex projects (8+ projects running concurrently with budgets of more than $10 million), using such popular tools as Clarity, IBM Rational, Jira, Rally, and ServiceNow. With the hard work of the project teams I’ve managed throughout the years, we have been able to create numerous innovative solutions within scope, on time, and within budget.
