Portland, Oregon Metropolitan Area
I am a Technical Program Manager with over twelve years of experience leading large, cross-functional, cross-regional projects & programs. I orchestrate end-to-end delivery of enterprise technical initiatives , leading several concurrent worksteams such as new platform development, platform migrations and simplification, all of which required tight coordination across Product, Engineering, Architecture and cross-functional partners. I translated strategy into execution by creating clear roadmaps (in partnership with Product), creating action plans, then monitoring & reporting KPIs, and ensuring continuous alignment through structured governance such as using program briefs, applying formal risk management, and hosting monthly stakeholder check-ins. My foundation as an IT engineer and master's degree in Computer Science give me a deep appreciation for the technical side of delivery, and my PMP certification enables a disciplined yet adaptable approach to program management.
