With 15 years of IT experience within the pharmaceutical industry and 10 years in IT consulting/QA IT, I know how to build organizational structures and controls that spur innovation. And with a background in finance and an MBA complimenting my technical experience, I am adept at leading teams across functions and across international offices to deliver large ERP implementations of SAP technologies, on-time, on-budget, and in compliance with complex international regulations. Leading teams is what I enjoy most. Coaching and mentoring talent and building highly engaged and collaborative teams that understand their impact on the larger organization and work towards a common goal. By linking the teams’ efforts to the bigger picture and directing resources to the most mission-critical areas, we deliver more robust results more efficiently, and with the highest quality.Early in my career, I was driven by my passion for technology and love for learning to develop broad technical knowledge and expertise. Now, I leverage that technical knowledge when communicating with development teams. It allows me to build rapport quickly, determine feasibility of projects, and work collaboratively to overcome obstacles. Areas of expertise: IT management, solution architecture, ERP implementation, CFR 21 and GxP compliance, Agile and Waterfall project management, service transitions, thought leadership, financial management, change management, quality assurance, and risk management.
