    I am an experienced financial writer and investment industry research professional with in-depth knowledge of financial markets and investment concepts. I write about fundamental and quantitative equity strategies, fixed income (16 years of experience), alternatives, and other asset classes and strategies. I also have deep expertise in Sustainability/ESG. I write for asset management, wealth management, private equity and financial advisory firms, and vendors in the investment arena. The target market for the content I create ranges from institutional investors to retail/mass-market investors, and I enjoy writing articles tailored to each client's needs. I write on a wide variety of topics related to financial markets and investing, including economic and market trends. I have expertise in both real-world applications of investment concepts and academic theories of financial markets, and I specialize in making complicated topics understandable to all readers. I write a wide variety of content, including regular blog posts, white papers (original research), methodology guides, market commentaries, newsletter articles, quarterly performance reviews, eBooks, website landing pages, marketing materials and other content. I work with asset managers of all sizes (fundamental and quantitative), as well as consultants, analytics and data vendors and specialty firms (buy-side and sell-side) to generate content that highlights a firm's thought leadership, educates the firm's clientele, and supports its business strategy. Given my background in corporate finance, I also write for firms that provide CFO-type consulting services. Lastly, I enjoy writing that supports financial literacy and work to demystify concepts related to investing (I maintain a personal blog devoted to this). As a writer, I am also an "educator". I can develop a customized series of articles or a training webinar on topics related to securities analysis and portfolio management, including performance measurement, performance attribution, fixed income portfolio analysis, mortgage-backed securities and other topics that would be covered in a CFA prep course. I was an adjunct professor and Executive in Residence at the UCLA Anderson Master of Financial Engineering Program for five years and an adjunct professor of Finance in the Mt. St. Mary's University MBA program for five years. I also have substantial experience working with investment management software vendors and have a deep knowledge of the investment analytics business. I helped define business strategy and product design for leading fixed income and multi-asset class investment analytics software vendors and have hands-on knowledge of the "software development lifecycle". I am experienced in acting as a liaison among client-facing teams (sales, account reps), quants, application and UI developers and data teams. I look forward to talking with you about how I can help your business.

    Hello- Do you worry about having action items completed on time? Do you have projects that are stalled or underperforming? Do you need someone to act as an ambassador for your company with clients, internal and external? Do you need someone to guide and motivate your teams? These are the things I love managing and helping make come together on time. Program/Project Management is what I enjoy and am passionate about. Qualities that make me the ideal candidate are: • Driving to Success – Being the springboard to help others succeed is one of my best qualities. Part of that skill is seeing the end game and getting the team to that point. I have done that both during implementations and in the classroom. o “Jayne is a fantastic project manager with an excellent understanding of Agile methodologies. Jayne came on board our team to take over PM duties for a stalled project implementing Salesforce as our new CRM, and was able to quickly understand the business requirements/technology, scope the remaining work, and focus the team in order to see the project to a successful conclusion. Jayne is passionate about her work and would bring a wealth of knowledge and experience to any team looking for project management expertise.” SFDC/ERP Project, VP of Information Technology • Cross-functional leadership – Part of the joy I get is bringing people together to get great things done. Speaking to people in different roles with different communication styles and negotiating to ensure everyone’s wants and needs align. One CEO, a former prosecuting attorney who was not technical, lost faith in the stalled SFDC project and needed to understand how to proceed. After having the Dev team rescope the work, we created a new plan with a $5M budget, which aligned outputs, dates, and team members, which we released on time and on budget. o "Jayne is a talented and insightful project manager with an excellent grasp of Agile development methodologies. She immediately redirected our troubled Salesforce conversion project and got us to our go-live date. I highly recommend her for these types of conversion and implementation work." SFDC Project, Bruce, CEO o “Software development frequently implies different groups with different objectives trying to produce one product. Inherent in that is a conflict about what, when, and how things should be done. Jayne always helped manage the different objectives and agendas to drive the products toward a single, cohesive, and successful end result. That requires a tremendous amount of both attention to detail and patience, which can be hard to find in a single individual and that Jayne has in abundance. Jayne would be a great asset to any company needing someone that can step in and drive projects to successful completion.” Program Manager NetIQ position, Wes, Dev Lead • Intellectual Curiosity – The continued learning and certifications in various topics can evidence my desire to learn and grow. Some certifications I have attained include a Project Management and System Design from Cornell, a SCRUM Master Certification from ScrumStudy, a Regulatory Compliance Certification from the University of Pennsylvania, and Blockchain Revolution Certification from INSEAD. This attribute leads me to ask the right questions during a project to uncover potential pitfalls, allowing teams ample time to identify and mitigate risks. My varied experience in Project Management, Training, Instructional Design, and Sales brings a depth of information to your organization. Some of the industries and clients I have worked in include high-tech (both software and hardware development), cyber-security, e-commerce (both transactional sales and subscriptions), oil and gas, tax consulting, manufacturing, and education industries that bring a lot to the table. In addition to various industries, I have worked in startup environments, global teams, and reporting to managers at all levels locally and in other locations. Methodologies I am well versed in include Agile, Waterfall, and Stage-Gate using PMI methodologies. Additionally, I have taught college-level Government, World Cultures, Psychology, and Project Management skills using multiple applications in Education. Lastly, I have years of discovering risks, mitigating them, and completing projects on time and under budget while delivering high customer satisfaction. These skills I hope to bring to your programs and projects. Thank you for your time, and I hope to hear from you in the near future.

    Rather than start by talking about myself (and risk repeating what you can find in my profile) I would like to discuss why project management is important. It's this explanation that will begin to show how you can benefit through hiring someone such as myself. So why is project management important? I tell my clients there are two main benefits: 1) It provides you visibility. Good project management practices enable the manager to relay to their key stakeholders at any point in time what the health of their project is. For example, let's say a key objective is to complete your project within a fixed budget. The project manager (PM) can communicate with you and other key stakeholders, as the project progresses (i.e. before it's too late to react), whether the actual expenditures show that the project is overrunning, underrunning, or right on budget. 2) The other main benefit it provides is control. The absence of control on a project is what we term firefighting. In this environment the PM is always reacting to the next issue and crisis and since it's always unknown when the next crisis will pop up the PM has in reality, very little control over the execution. Good project management practices allow you to anticipate risks and issues proactively and head them off before they escalate to the point where your project objectives are in peril. Good practices also enable you to better estimate activity durations and costs, engage your stakeholders appropriately, analyze the impacts of requests for change, and ensure your work products meet their requirements and are acceptable to your customer. All these activities collectively provide the PM with control and the ability ultimately to meet the project's objectives. I am confident that I can assist your organization by serving you in any of the following ways: - Project/program manager - PMP/CAPM prep trainer - Project management fundamentals trainer - Work breakdown structure workshop trainer and facilitator - Risk management workshop trainer and facilitator - Coach for project managers - Assistance in PMO set-up - Project management maturity assessment - Microsoft Project scheduling assistance
