Seattle, Wa, Us

Hired as Delivery Lead for Coke project.

Failure was avoided when moving responsibilities from offshore resources to an onsite team. The transition wasn't easy and there were still plenty of hurdles before predictable Agile SDLC practices became routine. Rapid action was taken to ensure critical deliverable dates were met, meaning tough decisions were made about what features were in, which ones were out and all the while ensuring a quality deliverable. Sometimes getting everyone to row in the same direction, as a team, is the greatest challenge.

Market Research and Sales Pre-qualification. Why is this on my LinkedIn profile??? It was so long ago that it's not even relevant. It's here because it reminds me of a time when my main focus was on boating slips, evening yacht cruises, wine and cheese parties in warm South Florida evening breezes - the elegance of a wind powered boat as it carves through small waves. Perhaps one day, for me, life will perform a full circle.
