In my current role at Dell, I am developing business strategies for our (MTO) Modernization Transformation Office. This role is responsible for ensuring governance and portfolio alignment for the entire Frictionless Supply Chain domain area in Global Operations. I’ve been able to utilize my knowledge and expertise in portfolio management and agile to help create an operating environment that enables transformative value through platform integration, data analytics, and AI capabilities.

I opted into the Scrum-of-Scrums" Leader accountability for our agile transformation initiative and became the first in title to do so at Dell!I led the integration of the "Scrum@Scale" agile framework for Dell’s largest, IT Enterprise software platform. This was accomplished by developing a “reference model” for other software product groups to adopt. The transformation effort involved conducting a gap analysis, remapping process, meetings through VSM, updating tools, refactoring agile teams, and roles from the legacy to an “evolved” state. This was accomplished all while maintaining our release cadence and commitments in our product roadmap. Key focus was to identify/resolve or escalate impediments in the Leadership and Executive Action Teams. Additionally, I fostered and implemented process improvements (kaizens); as necessary to increase productivity and efficiency across many agile development teams to support value creation. Prior to this role transformation, I led cross-functional programs through the Offer Lifecycle Management Process (OLP). Focus areas were plan, budget, monitor, and reporting on the progress of the programs to ensure they remained on the committed schedule. I drove the development and implementation of new and existing software products and services, while working closely with Marketing, Engineering, and other support groups in cross-functional teams to manage the entire lifecycle of highly complex, high-risk projects.

After developing several 3G/4G data offload program initiatives for AT&T Mobility, AT&T Wi-Fi Services senior leadership placed me into a senior manager role to scale the National PMO organization.

Joined a startup company that brought Wi-Fi technology and adoption into the marketplace. Worked my way up through many promotions to manage a portfolio of network infrastructure deployment programs. I led a dedicated program team of 10 project managers. Supported and managed the client relationship for customers such as AT&T, IHOP, Hertz, McDonald's, Hilton, Four Seasons, Barnes and Noble, FedEx, UPS, General Growth Malls, and many more. Responsible for the overall program direction of 25-30 resources and vendor management of more than 100 contractors. In this startup company, I was responsible for the largest commercial Wi-Fi network deployment in the U.S. with more than 10,000 McDonald’s stores. Also responsible for integrating business requirements jointly with McDonald’s National IT team for store openings and rebuilds. This effort won us vendor of the year awards, since McD stores could operate with public/private WiFi, cashless and POS systems before opening day.After AT&T acquired Wayport, Inc. (November 2008), I stayed in the same role and continued to manage a portfolio of network deployment projects during the company integration.
