I have spent my career serving as a conduit between the business and technical worlds. For over 20 years, I have expanded my business acumen and obtained certifications in product management, analysis, DevOps management, and AI. And I have designed and managed more than 30 software products. In 2015, I left my job as Senior Product Manager (managing a portfolio of four software products) to begin consulting. Since then, I've worked with companies in the IT, GRC, government, education, real estate, entertainment, manufacturing, and construction sectors. Much of this work has been in software management, but business process improvement is also a key focus. Lately, a large part of my work has centered around AI workflows and content generation. As a consultant, I enjoy tackling new challenges and bringing the value of my diverse experience. I am a skilled remote worker, able to coordinate my own work as well as that of distributed teams. And I am fast yet thorough in delivery of work. I hope I can work with you and deliver a quality product.
